Regulation 16

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

Insert after regulation 48(3)—

“(4)

The relevant Authority need not issue a Renewables LEC as respects a quantity of electricity less than 1 MWh.

  • However the relevant Authority may aggregate or disaggregate such quantities relating to the same generating station, certifying each complete MWh as appropriate.

(5)

The relevant Authority need not issue a Renewables LEC unless it is satisfied that the Renewables LEC, if issued, would represent electricity consumed or to be consumed in the United Kingdom.

  • For this purpose, the relevant Authority may have regard in particular to whether any part of that electricity is or may be allocated by the operator of the generating station or a supplier for consumption outside the United Kingdom.

(6)

A Renewables LEC must be regarded for all purposes of this Part as only relating to the actual electricity in relation to which it was issued.”.
