Industry fury as Beckett retreats over UK carbon allowances
2005
Overview
The allowance of 736 million tonnes was what the UK applied for when it submitted its draft national allocation plan to Brussels last April. In July, the Government asked for an increased allocation of 756 million tonnes after discovering it had underestimated the amount of carbon produced by the UK because of higher electricity demand and increasing use of gas and coal-fired power stations. The Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs said that it was \"disappointed\" at the Commission's refusal to allow an higher allocation. Defra also pointed out that the extra 20 million tonne allowance asked for amounted to only a 3 per cent increase in the UK's national allocation when it now estimates that UK emissions will exceed the allocation by 56 tonnes or 7.6 per cent.
