5                      QPE, displacement, h     Quantity of electricity purchased by project biomethane facility h                              kWh or GJ                     Evidenced by invoices, contractual arrangements or industry metering records.                                                                                                  Cumulative value for the reporting period.
                                                                                                                                                                              If EPE, displacement, h is measured in gigajoules, the quantity of kilowatt hours must be calculated by dividing the amount of gigajoules by the conversion factor of 0.0036.
                                                                                                                                                                              Frequency—continuous.

       (2) Any equipment or device used to monitor a parameter must be calibrated by an accredited third party technician at intervals, and using methods, that are in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications.

       (3)  The measurement of biogas and biomethane pressures must be carried out using equipment that complies with the following accuracy and transmitter requirements:
         (a) pressure <±0.5%; and
         (b) differential pressure <±0.5%.

       (4)  In this section:

       i means a fuel type.
42 Value of certain parameters may be estimated if project proponent fails to monitor them

       (1) This section applies if, in any period in a reporting period, the project proponent is unable or fails to monitor a parameter specified in the table to this section as required by the monitoring requirements. In this determination this period is called the non-monitored period.

       (2) In that case, the value of the parameter for the purpose of working out the carbon dioxide equivalent net abatement amount for the reporting period is to be determined for the non-monitored period in accordance with the table.
