CRC Assist offers a full service provision to organizations affected by the CRC. It provides support to help businesses understand the CRC; assists them with the development of an energy management strategy; and manages their participation in the scheme.

Dave Lewis, head of business energy services at npower, said: “We believe it’s crucial that organizations understand the CRC and the management strategies they should implement to succeed within it.

“The scheme has been developed to offer significant incentives for the most successful participants and we have developed CRC Assist to ensure organizations are best placed to benefit from these.”

As part of CRC Assist, npower will help participants develop energy management strategies. In the longer term, it will also assist them with managing their performance in the CRC’s league table, which will outline the best and worst performers in terms of emissions reduction. Through effective energy management, organizations will be able to achieve a higher position on the league table, the company said.

CRC Assist also offers businesses advice on carbon allowance purchasing, helping to make the ‘cap and trade’ element of the scheme easy. Apart from that, npower will also support organizations with their records and submissions within the scheme.
