Monthly Energy Profits Levy (EPL) cash receipts are published in ‘HMRC tax receipts and National Insurance Contributions for the UK’ and can be found at the following link: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/689ecbc12e8cc8ec5b3572b2/NS_Table.ods

EPL is typically paid in July, October and January alongside companies’ corporation tax instalments. In January 2025 and July 2025, EPL cash receipts were £952m and £778m respectively reported in line with the timing of instalment payments.
