Electricity Generator Levy

The Electricity Generator Levy (EGL) is a tax on electricity generators' profits introduced by HM Treasury and administered by HMRC as part of the UK's energy and climate policy response. It operates alongside the Climate Change Levy (CCL) and the Energy Profits Levy, with recent focus on how these levies apply to emerging technologies like electrolytic hydrogen. The policy is currently active with ongoing consultation and implementation of technical adjustments.
