Carbon Tax Series: Carbon and Environmental Tax: Budget 2022 (Part 3) - 2022
Presenters : Jason Daniel
Overview
The carbon tax rate will increase by the amount of the consumer price inflation (CPI) of the preceding tax period plus two per cent until 31 December 2022, and thereafter, only by CPI of the preceding tax period. The GHG emissions resulting from fuel combustion activities, industrial processes and fugitive emissions expressed as a carbon dioxide equivalent will be taxable. A person conducting an activity in South Africa resulting in GHG emissions equal to and/or above the thresholds as provided for in Schedule 2 of the Carbon Tax Act, will be subject to carbon tax.
This series of five webinars is aimed at addressing and unpacking the nuances of carbon tax and its interplay with environmental legislation, providing practical insight and an overview of the key provisions within the Carbon Tax Act, and exploring the impact that carbon tax act has on businesses. We look to compare carbon tax in South Africa against environmental levies implemented in other jurisdictions to understand the key successes and failures of carbon tax in South Africa. Finally, we aim to examine carbon taxes through a broader lens by examining the economic impact of its implementation and how carbon taxes will drive the focus on Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) factors.
