Description
Electricity firms are paying rising costs for pollution and this has important implications for companies.
Trucost research found that carbon costs could equate to almost 12% of revenue, on average. [While carbon costs will vary nationally until global carbon trading is in place, Trucost used the average carbon price under the established EU Emission Trading Scheme over three months to 4th January 2010 (US$19.23) to model potential exposure to carbon costs worldwide.]
In order to manage risks from environmental costs being passed on by electricity providers and other suppliers, companies need to understand the relative exposure of their suppliers.
This webinar will explain how you can:
- assess your current providers
- understand financial risk from pass through costs
- reduce your exposure
