Why is energy tax charged?

The government levies energy tax on the consumption of electricity and gas to reduce energy consumption. This tax aims to reduce the use of fossil fuels, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and combat acidification. By raising the price of energy, the government hopes consumers will be more conscious and economical with energy.
