What are claim values?

A claim value can be applied to a piece of equipment that is not supported by the Enhanced Capital Allowance (ECA) scheme, but has components that meet the energy technology list criteria.

Take, for example, a motor that qualifies for the Energy Technology Criteria List (ETCL) but sits within a non-ETCL qualifying compressor. The claim value equals the proportion of the total investment that qualifies for the allowance, and should be used when making a claim.

How do claim values work?
If you invest in a stand-alone item that meets the ECA energy criteria, you can claim the full cost of the product and related installation costs.

However, if you purchase a piece of equipment that doesn’t qualify, but has components that do, you can only claim for the costs relating to these. The remainder of the equipment will be eligible for a Capital Allowance.

How do you calculate the claim value?
Products that often form a small part of a larger piece of equipment have published claim values that should form the basis of an ECA application. Use the dropdown menus to find out the claim values for different technologies and sub-technologies.
