Guidance: Climate change agreements: operations manual

Imported from official source

These manuals explain how to set up and manage an agreement, and how to report energy data against targets for:

  • the previous CCA scheme (Target Periods 1 to 6)
  • the new CCA scheme (Target Periods 7 to 9)
  • The associated spreadsheets help you to submit data for both the previous and the new scheme, or to submit variations in specific circumstances, as set out within the CCA manual.
