The total administration costs of the Low Carbon Contracts Company (LCCC) and the Electricity Settlements Company (ESC) will add on average 18 pence to household bills in 2015/16, according to estimates set out for consultation by Decc.
Decc said in a consultation lasting less than a month, from 5 November to 3 December, that it anticipated day to day operating costs of the LCCC would be £12.01 million in 2015/16. The ESC would cost £3.89 million.
