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 and is applicable on the declaration day—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 in force on the declaration day.
 (5) The facility‑specific apportioning metric for a production variable is the apportioning metric determined by the project proponent for the production variable in accordance with the following requirements:
 (a) the apportioning metric must be determined once, for use in relation to all NGER reporting years in the project's baseline period;
 (b) the apportioning metric must be determined using an approach that:
 (i) includes any material emissions source associated with the production variable; and
 (ii) if an emissions source overlaps 2 or more output variables, including the production variable—apportions emissions from that source between the variables so that the sum of the emissions apportioned to the variables in any year of the baseline period is no more than 5% greater than the total emissions from that source during that year; and
 (iii) if the production variable is electricity generated by a CHP plant at the facility and exported from the facility—apportions emissions to that electricity using equation 27; and
 (iv) measures and apportions emissions in a manner that is consistent with the NGER (Measurement) Determination; and
 (v) only apportions greenhouse gas emissions that are not excluded NGER fugitive emissions; and
 (vi) if the approach converts electricity use to an amount of emissions—uses the same electricity emissions factor that is used to convert purchased electricity in kilowatt hours to emissions in kilograms CO2‑e for the purpose of calculating the total baseline NGER emissions for the facility (see the parameter EFEP in section 36); and
 (vii) reasonably represents the actual emissions attributable to the production variable;
 (c) if the production variable is electricity generated using existing generating units at the facility and exported from the facility, the apportioning metric must not result in the baseline emissions intensity of the production variable being less than an amount calculated by dividing:
 (i) the emissions from fuel combusted by the existing generating units to generate electricity exported from the facility during the baseline year; by
 (ii) the quantity of electricity generated using the existing generating units and exported from the facility during the baseline year.
