The U.K. plans to scrap the climate-change tax exemption for renewable power, Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne said Wednesday in his summer budget.

“Now we have a long-term framework for investment in renewable energy in place, we will remove the out-dated climate-change levy exemption for renewable electricity that has seen taxpayer money benefiting electricity generation abroad,” Osborne said in the House of Commons.
