9  Refrigeration and ventilation fan projects
 (1) For paragraph 106(1)(a) of the Act, this determination applies to an offsets project that:
 (a) relates to the installation, modification or replacement of refrigeration fans or ventilation fans or both; and
 (b) involves undertaking either or both of the following:
 (i) 1 or more high efficiency fan installations;
 (ii) 1 or more small motor fan upgrades; and
 (c) can reasonably be expected to result in eligible carbon abatement.
Note: Some activities under this determination are capable of being classified as both a high efficiency fan installation and a small motor fan upgrade. The project proponent is required to classify such activities as one or the other for the purposes of this determination, and the classification applies for the entire crediting period. See subsection 22(3).
 (2) A project covered by subsection (1) is a refrigeration and ventilation fan project.
High efficiency fan installations
 (3) For this determination, a high efficiency fan installation involves:
 (a) installing a fan as a refrigeration fan or a ventilation fan that satisfies the following:
 (i) the fan has a motor input power that is:
 (A) greater than or equal to 0.125 kilowatts; and
 (B) less than or equal to 185 kilowatts;
 (ii) the fan is an eligible fan type;
 (iii) the fan has an operating efficiency that is greater than or equal to the high efficiency threshold for the fan; or
 (b) modifying or replacing a fan that is installed as a refrigeration fan or a ventilation fan (whether or not the fan satisfies subparagraphs (a)(i), (ii) and (iii)) so that, after the modification or replacement, the fan:
 (i) satisfies subparagraphs (a)(i), (ii) and (iii); and
 (ii) has a nominal motor power that is not materially greater than that of the fan before the modification or replacement.
 (4) For subparagraph (3)(a)(iii), the operating efficiency and high efficiency threshold are calculated in accordance with Schedule 1.
 (5) The fan that results from a high efficiency fan installation is an installed HE fan.
Small motor fan upgrades
 (6) For this determination, a small motor fan upgrade involves modifying or replacing a fan that is installed as a refrigeration fan or a ventilation fan and that:
 (a) has a motor input power of less than or equal to 0.175 kilowatts; and
 (b) is driven by a motor that is an eligible small motor type;
  so that, after the modification or replacement, the fan:
 (c) satisfies paragraph (a); and
 (d) is driven instead by an electronically commutated motor; and
 (e) has a nominal motor power that is not materially greater than that of the fan before the modification or replacement.
 (7) The fan that results from a small motor fan upgrade is an
