I am advised by Revenue that it does not have the necessary data to model the potential impact of changes in the rate of Electricity Tax charged to any particular cohort of energy users. The annual Electricity Tax Return does not include any breakdown of supply by customer size.

I am further advised by Revenue that the full-year yield that would arise from increasing the current Electricity Tax rate from €1 to €3 per Megawatt hour for all users is estimated at €12.7m.
