The fixing and allocation of allowances
The total quota of 2. period
§ 15. For 2. period from 1. January 2008 to 31 December 2008. December 2012, the total quantity of allowances to be fixed allocation to operators for the discharge of CO2 to a total of 122.5 million allowances.
(2). Quotas are allocated by the Minister in accordance with sections 17-20 a to operators who fulfil article 20, paragraph 2.
(3). Devoted 2.5 millions of quotas referred to in paragraph 1 to the production units will be operational after 1. January 2007, and not known to unforeseen requirements in accordance with sections 17 and 18.
(4). Quotas for production units in accordance with paragraph 3 are allocated from the 1. in the month after the operator has announced and demonstrated that the production unit is put into operation, and legally granted in the rest of the period, if the pot in paragraph 3 allows for this by first granting and the conditions for allowance are fulfilled.
(5). Where the total number of allowances referred to in paragraph 1 exceeds the number of allowances, as after this law must be assigned to an operator, the excess quantity of allowances sold as specified in section 21. The Minister may, subject to a maximum sell 12.25 million allowances from 2. period.
The base year for the allocation of 2. period
§ 16. Quota allocation under section 17 shall be based on the average historical carbon emissions and electricity and heat production in the base years referred to in article 6. paragraphs 2 to 4.
(2). At the base the years means the period from the 1. January 1998 to 31 December 1999. December 2004.
(3). If a production unit has not been in operation for all base years, the operating period within the base years are used as the base year.
(4). If CO2 emissions in 2004 is higher than the average carbon emissions in the base years referred to in article 6. paragraphs 2 and 3 is used in 2004 as the base year.
(5). Production units or parts thereof, as referred to in section 18, paragraph 1, and section 19, paragraph 1, and which is put into service after 1 January 1999. January 2004, are not included in the calculation of the average historical carbon emissions and electricity and heat production in the base years referred to in article 6. (1).
(6). Determining which data basis for the average historical carbon emissions and electricity and heat production, to be used in the calculation of the quota allocation for a production unit shall be taken by the Minister, if no agreement can be reached with the operator about data base.
(7). Fuel consumption for heat production, see. § 17, for combined heat and power plants is calculated as the recovered heat production shared with a heat efficiency at 125 per cent and for boiler plants as the entire fuel consumption. In the calculation of the brændslers CO2 emissions emission factors in annex 1 shall be used.
Allocation in 2. period to the production units, which are put into operation before 1 January 2002. April 2004

However, section 18.
(2). For all other production units, see. sections 5-8 are awarded for 2. 4.35 quotas for each tonne of CO2 period, on average per year in the base years were derived from the production unit's fuel-related CO2 emissions and allowances for each ton of CO2 4.9, on average per year in the base years were derived from the production process of discharge device, see. However, section 18.
(3). If the production unit demonstrates that the actual CO2 emissions during the operational period within the base years referred to in article 6. section 16, paragraph 3, is significantly lower due to reduced production in relation to expected normal production, the Minister may decide that the quota allocation is according to § 18, unless the reduced production due to commercial or market conditions.
§ 18. For a production unit which is put into operation in the period from 2. January 2004 to 31 December 2004. March 2004, or as in this period have made a substantial extension, awarded for 2. period allowances as specified in paragraphs 2 to 5.
(2). All production units, with the exception of devices referred to in paragraph 3-5, assigns 0.87 quota annually for each ton of CO2 by the calculated fuel-related CO2 emissions in 2004 and 0.98 quota annually for each ton of CO2 by the calculated process-related CO2 emissions in 2004. The calculation is done on the basis of the production unit's actual CO2 emissions in 2004 converted into emissions for an entire year.
(3). Energy producing installations in industry, etc., as covered by article 5, paragraph 1, no. 1, 459 quotas are assigned annually per installed MW thermal fossil capacity. Paragraph 2 shall be applicable, if this will lead to a higher quota allocation.

Allocated additional quotas per MW installed fossil 305 heat generation capacity per year, the unit is in operation, provided that the heat not totally or partially used in the heavy processes, see. (6). Allocation of quotas is subject to the condition that it be proved that the technical device whose commissioning trigger quota allocation, will be in operation at least 3,000 full load hours annually. By operating times of between 2,000 and 2,999 full load hours allocated to 2/3 and by operating times of between 1,000 and 1,999 full load hours allocated to 1/3 of the quotas listed in 1. and 2. point allocations shall be adapted in the following year, if the assumed operating time is changed. By power-heat-producing units is calculated elkapaciteten at full heat output. The Minister may, as a condition for quota allocation lay down requirements for the documentation of the operating time.
(4). Power generation equipment referred to in paragraph 3, in respect of which the application for approval after the electricity or heat supply Act is received by the approval authority before the 5.

(8). Allocation in accordance with paragraphs 6 and 7 shall be subject to the production unit in whole or in part using a fossil fuel, for whose release the operator shall surrender allowances under section 26. If only partially used fossil fuels, reduced quota allocation proportionately.
§ 20. The production unit's total quota in accordance with §§ 17 and 18 for the period 2008-2012 shall be assigned to the operator by the Minister with 20 per cent in each of the years. Quotas allocated in accordance with section 19 be assigned proportionally every year.
(2). Award of the annual quota is subject to the condition that the operator is in possession of a valid discharge authorisation pursuant to section 10 of the basic regulation. However, section 9, paragraph 2, that the necessary permissions for other legislation exists that production unit has a real production at the start of the year, the quota is assigned, and that the relevant information for the quota allocation, as the operator has notified is correct.
(3). Where an operator has not complied with its obligation to surrender allowances under section 26 (2), shall be deducted from the outstanding quantity of allowances before the next allocation to the operator.
(4). If the quota allocation is based on inaccurate data or information, there may be an adjustment of the quota allocation in the following year.
