Client
Energiekontor
Facility
Onshore wind farm
Brief
Handel Rating Consultancy were instructed to mitigate the excessive and burdensome rates charges
Action
HRC served an appeal against the 2010 Rating List
Result
HRC succeeded in reaching a favourable settlement with the Valuation Officer three months after the appeal had been served.
This resulted in Energiekontor receiving a substantial rates refund, with total savings delivered through to 2017 amounting to over £180,000
Energiekontor now benefits from a rates charge well below that paid by the owners of other high yielding onshore wind farms in the UK.
