18A  What can be included in calculating net abatement

       For the purposes of working out the total carbon dioxide equivalent net abatement amount for a reporting period for an animal effluent management project Atot (in tonnes CO2 e):
           (a) the calculations for a non-biomethane project must include only the conversion abatement attributable to emissions avoidance, emissions destruction, or both, worked out using the method set out in Division 2; and
           (b) the calculations for a biomethane conversion and displacement project must include only:
                (i) the conversion abatement attributable to biogas generation for biomethane, worked out using the method set out in Division 2; and
                (ii) if the project also involves emissions destruction, the conversion abatement attributable to that emissions destruction, worked out using the method set out in Division 2; and
                (iii) if the project also involves emissions avoidance, the conversion abatement attributable to that emissions avoidance, worked out using the method set out in Division 2; and
                (iv) the displacement abatement attributable to biomethane production, worked out using the method set out in Division 3; and
           (c) the calculations for a biomethane displacement-only project must include only the displacement abatement attributable to biomethane production, worked out using the method set out in Division 3; and
           (d) the calculations for a restarting biomethane conversion and displacement project must include only:
                (i) the conversion abatement attributable to biogas generation for biomethane, worked out using the method set out in Division 2; and
                (ii) the displacement abatement attributable to biomethane production, worked out using the method set out in Division 3; and
           (e) the calculations for a restarting biomethane displacement-only project must include only the displacement abatement attributable to biomethane production, worked out using the method set out in Division 3.
