Why cut CO2 Emissions? > Benefits to Developers
Benefits to Developers
- By Cutting CO2
emissions you can help ensure your development is granted
planning approval.
- Enhanced capital
allowances (ECAs) are available where eligible ‘low carbon’
equipment is installed. ECAs allow a business to write off
the total cost of this equipment against taxable profits. As
a developer, it may be necessary to agree with contractors
how the savings are distributed. To find out more visit
http://www.eca.gov.uk/.
- A development with
lower CO2 emissions can lead to enhanced asset value, as
more ‘sustainable’ properties are more attractive to
prospective buyers.

- Cutting CO2
emissions demonstrates a commitment to sustainability, which
offers excellent PR potential and can build on any existing
CSR activities. This will make your business more attractive
to investors and to customers.
- Reducing delays in
the build stages of a new development can save thousands of
pounds. Addressing energy use and CO2
emissions earlier on
can save delays and avoid bottlenecks.
C-Plan is designed to help you take CO2
emissions and energy use into account at the early design stages
of a new developments. To find out how C plan can help you,
