62  Site emissions in a pre‑treatment period
 (1) The emissions of greenhouse gas at a site in a population in the project in a pre‑treatment period is worked out using the formula (equation 18):
where:
EP,s means the emissions of greenhouse gas at the site in the pre‑treatment period, in tonnes CO2‑e.
QE,P,s means the amount of electricity consumed, from an electricity grid, at the site in the pre‑treatment period, in kilowatt hours, that was monitored in accordance with subsection 6(3).
EFE means:
 (a) if the site is connected to an electricity grid that is a grid in relation to which the NGA Factors document, in force on the day the project is declared to be an eligible offsets project, includes an emissions factor—that factor, in kilograms CO2‑e per kilowatt hour; or
 (b) if the site is connected to an electricity grid not covered by paragraph (a)—the emissions factor, in kilograms CO2‑e per kilowatt hour, for off‑grid electricity included in the NGA Factors document in force on the day the project is declared to be an eligible offsets project.
j means a type of greenhouse gas emitted from the combustion of natural gas at the site in the pre‑treatment period.
QGas,P,s means the amount of natural gas consumed at the site in the pre‑treatment period, in gigajoules, that was monitored in accordance with subsection 6(3).
EFGas,j means the emissions factor for natural gas and greenhouse gas type j, in kilograms CO2‑e per gigajoule, specified in Schedule 1 to the NGER (Measurement) Determination.
 (2) If only the consumption of electricity is measured at the site in the pre‑treatment period, then the value of QGas,P,s is taken to be zero for that period.
 (3) If only the consumption of natural gas is measured at the site in the pre‑treatment period, then the value of QE,P,s is taken to be zero for that period.
