<p>Quantitative and qualitative sector level assessment has been carried out as part
of a review of the Compensation Scheme for Energy Intensive Industries (EIIs). Among
the outcomes of this assessment was an extension of this scheme for the indirect costs
of the UK Emissions Trading System and Carbon Price Support Mechanism for 3 years,
with an increased level of aid intensity. This represents more than double the current
budget to support EIIs. Additionally, EIIs are eligible for support under the Government’s
current Energy Bill Relief Scheme.</p>
