32R  Emissions from purchased electricity use: displacement abatement

        (1) The emissions from purchased electricity that is specifically attributable to the operation of project biomethane facility f during a reporting period, EPE, displacement, f, in tonnes CO2-e, is worked out using the formula (equation 31):

       where:

       QPE, displacement, f is the amount of purchased electricity that is specifically attributable to the operation of project biomethane facility f during the reporting period, in kilowatt hours, determined in accordance with the monitoring requirements.

       EFPE, displacement is
           (a) for electricity obtained from an electricity grid that is a grid in relation to which the NGA Factors document 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—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.

        (2) For subparagraph (b)(i) of the definition of EFPE, displacement in subsection (1), the emissions factor must be worked out:
           (a) on a sent-out basis; and
           (b)  using a measurement or estimation approach that is consistent with the NGER (Measurement) Determination.
