As of 1 February 2024, the UK government has removed the VAT charge for domestic battery energy storage systems (BESS) under any circumstance. The policy change, initially announced in December 2023, followed a lengthy campaign by both Solar Energy UK and parliamentarians to include retrofitted BESS in the 20% tax exemption.
VAT on a range of domestic energy efficiency and renewable energy installations, including solar, is now 0% in Great Britain. This is a reduction from the previous rate of between 5% and 20% Eligible installations are those included on the Government’s list of Energy Saving Measures (ESMs).
The Government first announced the extension of the VAT zero rate to key energy-saving materials in its Spring 2023 Budget. Following an extensive consultation, the Government confirmed that from 1 February 2024 the zero rate of VAT will now apply.
