Article 36 Measuring activity in the CCTS

(1)

The number of units of activity that must be accounted for by a CCTS participant for a scheme year is the sum of the number of grams of CO₂ per kilometre emitted by each NZE car of which the participant is the manufacturer and which is registered during the scheme year.

(2)

For the purposes of this article, the number of grams of CO₂ per kilometre emitted by an NZE car is the number specified in that car’s specific emissions of CO₂, with that number having been, where applicable—

(a)

reduced in accordance with paragraph (3); or

(b)

corrected in accordance with Article 13(3) of Regulation (EU) 2019/631 (lack of correspondence of CO₂ emission and fuel consumption values).

(3)

An NZE car’s specific emissions of CO₂ are reduced by the number of grams of CO₂ per kilometre specified in the car’s certificate of conformity as CO₂ savings achieved by any eco-innovation, unless—

(a)

the Secretary of State has given a notice to the administrator in accordance with Article 12(2)(b) of Regulation (EU) 725/2011^f1 which relates to that eco-innovation; and

(b)

the notice was given during the scheme year which immediately preceded the scheme year for which a CCTS participant’s number of units of activity in the CCTS is measured.

(4)

A CCTS participant’s number of units of activity during a scheme year, if not a whole number, is calculated to three decimal places only.
