Renewable output of a qualifying combined heat and power generating station

10.—(1) Article 26 (renewable output of a qualifying combined heat and power generating station) is amended as follows.

(2) In paragraph (1)—

(a)after “permitted ancillary purposes” insert “or is an advanced fuel”; and

(b)omit “gasification, pyrolysis or”.

(3) In paragraph (2) (modification of article 25 of the 2009 order) in substitute paragraph (ii)—

(a)in sub-paragraph (aa) for “sub-paragraph (bb) or (cc)” substitute “sub-paragraph (cc)”; and

(b)omit sub-paragraph (bb).

(4) For paragraph (3) substitute—

(3) For paragraphs (5)(a) and (5)(b) of that article, substitute—

(a)F is the energy content of the renewable sources used when generating electricity in that way during that month less the energy content of—

(i)any fossil fuel from which those renewable sources are in part composed (other than fossil fuel from which a fuel the energy content of which is deducted by virtue of paragraph (ii) is in part composed);

(ii)except in the case of an excepted generating station, any of those renewable sources which is a gaseous fuel produced by means of gasification or pyrolysis and which has a gross calorific value when measured at 25 degrees Celsius and 0.1 megapascals at the inlet to the station of less than two megajoules per metre cubed;

(b)G is the energy content of all of the renewable sources used in generating the station’s gross output during that month less the energy content of—

(i)any fossil fuel from which those renewable sources are in part composed (other than fossil fuel from which a fuel the energy content of which is deducted by virtue of paragraph (ii) is in part composed);

(ii)except in the case of an excepted generating station, any of those renewable sources which is a gaseous fuel produced by means of gasification or pyrolysis and which has a gross calorific value when measured at 25 degrees Celsius and 0.1 megapascals at the inlet to the station of less than two megajoules per metre cubed;..

(5) Omit paragraph (4).
