  "text": "An energy efficiency level associated with the best available techniques (BAT-AEEL) refers to the ratio between the combustion unit's net energy output(s) and the combustion unit's fuel/feedstock energy input at actual unit design. The net energy output(s) is determined at the combustion, gasification, or IGCC unit boundaries, including auxiliary systems (e.g. flue-gas treatment systems), and for the unit operated at full load.\nIn the case of combined heat and power (CHP) plants:\nthe net total fuel utilisation BAT-AEEL refers to the combustion unit operated at full load and tuned to maximise primarily the heat supply and secondarily the remaining power that can be generated,\nthe net electrical efficiency BAT-AEEL refers to the combustion unit generating only electricity at full load.\nBAT-AEELs are expressed as a percentage. The fuel/feedstock energy input is expressed as lower heating value (LHV).\nThe monitoring associated with BAT-AEELs is given in BAT 2",
