The Energy Technology List details the energy-saving products that can qualify for Enhanced Capital Allowance (ECA), a tax relief that allows businesses to deduct 100% of their qualifying capital expenditure against their taxable profits in the period of the investment.
The list currently includes over 6,000 products, which meet published energy saving criteria.
Further information is available from the ECA website www.eca.gov.uk/etl
