ENHANCED CAPITAL ALLOWANCE CLAIM VALUES
Enhanced
Capital Allowances (ECA) are a financial incentive to help businesses investing
in low carbon technology. Subject to
meeting the required conditions, enhanced capital allowances permit the full
cost of the investment in specified technologies to be relieved for tax purposes
against the taxable income of the period of investments. This brings forward the tax relief, so that
it can be set against profits earlier than would otherwise be the case. The benefit to businesses is a cash flow
boost resulting from the reduction of the business’s tax bill for that year.
This scheme is
funded from revenue raised by the Climate Change Levy. All businesses, regardless of their size,
location or industrial sector, are eligible to claim enhanced capital
allowance.
With reference to the Enhanced Capital Allowance (ECA) scheme we detail
below the claim values applicable to our products.
Single Speed Motors
The following table identifies the GA, ZT and AQ compressors that incorporate
single speed motors and whether those motors appear on the Energy Technology
List. All the motors are listed under Siemens Automation and Drives as the
manufacturer.

Whilst the 11kw, 37kW and 45kW motors meet the efficiency criteria for
ECA’s they are not presently listed and hence cannot be claimed. We are in the
process of applying for these motors to be added to the Energy Technology List.
Variable Speed Drives
