What is an Enhanced Capital Allowance (ECA) Scheme?

The scheme allows businesses to write off 100% of the investment of the energy-saving technologies, against the taxable profits in the year in which the investment was made.  Each claim is assessed on its potential to reach real energy savings.

The qualifying product needs to be listed on the ETL that is updated to include new or improved products that meet the criteria.

Do you have any qualifying products listed in the Energy Technologies List?

Within each technology area there can be sub-technologies:

  • Air to Air energy recovery
  • Boiler Equipment
  • Combined Heat and Power
  • Compressed Air Equipment
  • Heat Pumps
  • Heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment
  • High Speed Hand Air Dryers
  • Lighting
  • Motors and Drives
  • Pipework Insulation
  • Radiant and warm air heaters
  • Refrigeration equipment
  • Solar thermal systems
