Writing in City AM, Bright Blue’s Joshua Marks urged the Government to make the green levy more progressive for short- and long-term benefits.
Joshua stated, “The current design of the green levy is inherently regressive since poorer households spend a higher proportion of their income on energy compared to richer households. Adjusting the system so those who have higher carbon footprints pay more to fund the net zero transition will help alleviate the cost of the green levy on those who cannot afford it, without sacrificing our renewable ambitions.”
