The Environment Agency plays a crucial role in protecting and improving the environment. Our role includes administering and regulating schemes to incentivise the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions from business and industry. We are the Regulator for England for the UK Emissions Trading Scheme (UK ETS) and the administrator of the UK Registry, which records emissions allowances and surrenders. The UK ETS is scheduled to expand to include the monitoring, reporting and verification of emissions from waste incineration and Energy from Waste facilities from 2026 onwards. This duty expands our remit in regulating the waste sector and we are working with the industry to enable a smooth implementation that delivers beneficial environmental outcomes.
