3.(1) The operator of an Article 27a installation may notify the regulator that, if the installation exceeds the maximum amount in any scheme year, the operator prefers to comply with the conditions of an Article 27 installation emissions permit or, alternatively, a greenhouse gas emissions permit in respect of the installation (“the operator’s preferred alternative permit”).

(2) A notice that is given pursuant to sub-paragraph (1) must state that, from the beginning of the scheme year following the year in which the notice is given—

(a)the installation will not be treated as an Article 27a installation; and

(b)the operator will be required to comply with the conditions of the operator’s preferred alternative permit for the remainder of the allocation period during which the notice is given.

(3) Where the regulator has not received the operator’s preferred alternative permit by the date specified in paragraph 2(2)(a) or (b), as the case may be, the notice under sub-paragraph (1) must state that, from the beginning of the scheme year following the year in which the notice is given, until the end of the allocation period during which the notice is given, the operator will be required to comply with the conditions of a greenhouse gas emissions permit in respect of the installation.

(4) The operator of an Article 27a installation who has received a notice given pursuant to sub-paragraph (1) may apply for—

(a)a greenhouse gas emissions permit, under regulation 10(1); or

(b)an Article 27 installation emissions permit, under regulation 10(2),

Asesiadau Effaith

Impact Assessments generally accompany all UK Government interventions of a regulatory nature that affect the private sector, civil society organisations and public services. They apply regardless of whether the regulation originates from a domestic or international source and can accompany primary (Acts etc) and secondary legislation (SIs). An Impact Assessment allows those with an interest in the policy area to understand:

  • Why the government is proposing to intervene;
  • The main options the government is considering, and which one is preferred;
  • How and to what extent new policies may impact on them; and,
  • The estimated costs and benefits of proposed measures.
