25  Calculating emissions intensity (I)
 (1) The emissions intensity, in tonnes CO2‑e per service unit, for a vehicle or vehicles in a vehicle category for a particular period is worked out as follows:
 (a) unless paragraph (b) applies—using the formula (equation 14):

 (b) for light vehicles where fuel consumption cannot be measured—using the formula (equation 15):

where:
I means the emissions intensity, in tonnes CO2‑e per service unit, for the vehicle or vehicles in the vehicle category for the period.
E means the total emissions for the vehicle or vehicles in the vehicle category for the period, in tonnes CO2‑e, worked out using equation 16.
QS means quantity of service provided by the vehicle or vehicles in the vehicle category during the period determined in accordance with the monitoring requirements.
IGVGComb,v means the emissions intensity, in grams CO2 per kilometre, as set out for the vehicle in the Green Vehicle Guide in the column headed "CO2 g/km Comb" for vehicle v for the period.
IGVGElec,v means:
 (a) the energy consumption for vehicle v, in watt hours per kilometre, as set out for the vehicle in the Green Vehicle Guide in the column headed "Energy Consumption (Wh/km)"; or
 (b) there is no energy consumption for vehicle v set out as mentioned in paragraph (a)—0.
EFi,j,v means the emissions factor in kilograms of CO2‑e per gigajoule for each gas type j for fuel type i for vehicle v determined in accordance with the monitoring requirements.
EFi,CO2 means the emissions factor in kilograms of CO2‑e per gigajoule for carbon dioxide for fuel type i determined in accordance with the monitoring requirements.
EFEC means:
 (a) for electricity obtained from an electricity grid that is a grid in relation to which the NGA Factors document in force on the declaration day includes an emissions factor—that factor, in kilograms CO2‑e per kilowatt hour; or
 (b) for electricity obtained from an electricity grid not covered by paragraph (a) or from a source other than an electricity grid:
 (i) if the supplier of the electricity is able to provide an emissions factor that reflects the emissions intensity of the electricity and is applicable on the declaration day—that factor, in kilograms CO2‑e per kilowatt hour; or
 (ii) otherwise—the emissions factor, in kilograms CO2‑e per kilowatt hour, for off‑grid electricity included in the NGA Factors document in force on the declaration day.
n means the number of light vehicles in the project.
Note 1: The use of the Green Vehicle Guide to determine emissions intensity prevents crediting of any activity other than vehicle replacement.
Note 2: Where vehicles in the group do not have corresponding IGVGComb,v data, then the vehicles must be excluded from the calculations.
 (2) The total emissions
