BAT-associated energy efficiency levels (BAT-AEELs) for HFO and/or gas oil combustion in boilers
| These BAT-AEELs do not apply to units operated < 1 500 h/yr. | ||||
| In the case of CHP units, only one of the two BAT-AEELs ‘Net electrical efficiency’ or ‘Net total fuel utilisation’ applies, depending on the CHP unit design (i.e. either more oriented towards electricity generation or towards heat generation). | ||||
| These levels may not be achievable if the potential heat demand is too low. | ||||
