28  Net abatement amount for the project (A)
  The net abatement amount (A) for an eligible IEU project for the reporting period (in tonnes CO2-e) is worked out using the following equation (equation 1):
  where:
i is the index of the ith sub-unit of the project (that is, the calculations consider separately the contribution to the abatement of each sub-unit of an IE unit of the project).
ERB,i is the daily baseline emissions rate for the ith sub-unit given by equation 2 (section 29).
ERP,i is the daily project emissions rate ith sub-unit given by equation 4 (section 30).
 is the number of days of operation during the reporting period for the upgraded unit that includes the ith sub-unit.
Note: Days within the project measurement period may be included.
ANeg is:
 (a) if A was negative in the previous reporting period—the value of A for the previous reporting period;
 (b) otherwise—zero.
 is the decay coefficient for the ith sub-unit, and is 1 unless
 (a) the output of one of the sub-units of the IE unit was not measured for the reporting period; or
 (b) the reporting period did not satisfy the output representativeness criterion in section 23 for one of the sub-units of the IE unit;
  in which case  is given by the following table, where decay coefficient year 1 begins on the start date of the project measurement period for relevant IE unit:

If the reporting period ends during this decay coefficient year for the ith sub-unit:   …the decay coefficient  is:
