Australia's Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme (CPRS), which includes an Emissions Cap and Carbon Trading, whilst surrounded by uncertainty, could commence as early as 1 July 2013.
End use customers seeking an indication of the potential cost impact of any such scheme on their electricity charges can consider some simple formulas. However, the inescapable fact remains that the sole directly controllable element in each of these carbon cost formulas for most customers remains their own kWh electricity consumption. Therefore prudent business owners and managers can minimise their CPRS exposure by taking a fresh look inside their own business and then talking to us about best practice.
