are fuelled by one or more of the following–

(i)

crops grown for the purpose of providing a source of energy;

(ii)

forestry waste; and

(iii)

fuel derived from either or both of these materials,

municipal waste;

(cc)

industrial waste;

(ii)

partly by an internal-combustion engine or a gas turbine, using such gaseous or liquid fuel and partly by any engine or any turbine, using steam produced from–
