Energy efficiency and recycling doesn’t have to be taxing
No matter what size business you’re running you will of course be generating waste and needing to recycle or dispose of it safely and according to your legal duty of care. And you might be forgiven for thinking that the time, effort and expense of disposing of your waste is costing your business money which of course in some sense it is because as the old adage goes, you can’t bake a cake without breaking a few eggs. So what if we told you there was a way to save money on the broken egg shells? Hope is at hand.
The Government offers a number of different tax incentives for businesses to help you reduce your tax bill and the cost of disposing of the waste produced as a result of simply doing business. These incentives vary depending on whether your business needs to use a lot of energy because of the nature of your business e.g. maybe you’re running a garage and changing oil and need to dispose of it, or if you’re a small business that doesn’t use much energy, or if you would like to buy more energy-efficient technology for your business.
