Commission Regulation (EU) No 601/2012 of 21 June 2012 on the monitoring and reporting of greenhouse gas emissions pursuant to Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (Text with EEA relevance) (repealed) (c. 601)

ANNEX II U.K. Tier thresholds for calculation-based methodologies related to installations (Article 12(1))

4. Definition of tiers for the calculation factors for process emissions from carbonate decomposition U.K.

4.3. Tiers for the emission factor using Method B U.K.

Tier 1

:

The operator shall apply the standard factors listed in Annex VI, section 2, Table 3.

Tier 2

:

The operator shall apply a country specific emission factor in accordance with points (b) or (c) of Article 31(1).

Tier 3

:

The determination of the amount of relevant metal oxides stemming from the decomposition of carbonates in the product shall be carried out in accordance with Articles 32 to 35. Stoichiometric ratios referred to in Annex VI, section 2, Table 3 shall be used to convert composition data into emission factors assuming that all of the relevant metal oxides have been derived from respective carbonates.
