In 2024, the UK’s climate change-related energy tax revenue is predicted to maintain a steady presence, equating to 1.34% of GDP. This percentage is forecasted to gradually decline to 1.25% by 2028. Year-on-year variations demonstrate a slight decrease, influenced by policy adjustments and energy efficiency improvements. Over five years, the compound annual growth rate indicates a modest reduction trend that aligns with continued economic and environmental policy shifts.
Future trends to watch:
- The impact of new governmental policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions.
- Technological advancements in renewable energy and their influence on tax revenue.
- Fluctuations in global energy markets affecting national tax strategy.
