The recognition means the systems qualify for the government’s Enhanced Capital Allowance (ECA) scheme enabling customers to claim 100 per cent of the first year capital allowance against taxable profits in that period.
“For a product to feature on the ETL, it must meet certain energy saving criteria and the ECA can only be claimed on eligible equipment,” said Guy Fitzpatrick, general manager of ICA at Xylem.
“Customers may be aware of the potential savings new equipment could make, but don’t necessarily have the funds to make the change. The ECA was created with this in mind, enabling businesses to invest in energy saving equipment at no upfront cost.”
