# The Greenhouse Gas Emissions Trading Scheme Order 2020, Article 34B: Allocation tables: supplementary


(1) This article applies for the purposes of article 34A(8)(b) or 34AA(5)(b).
(2) Where the final annual number of allowances to be allocated in respect of an installation is approved under Article 16b of the Free Allocation Regulation or Part 2 of the Greenhouse Gas Emissions Trading Scheme (Amendment) (No. 2) Order 2025, that number must be included in column A.
(3) Where the final annual number of allowances to be allocated in respect of an installation is approved under Article 18a of that Regulation or under paragraph 4 of Schedule 8A to this Order, that number must be included in column B.
(3A) Where the final annual number of allowances to be allocated in respect of an installation is approved under article 20(5) of the Greenhouse Gas Emissions Trading Scheme (Amendment) Order 2023 (free allocation for 2024 and 2025 scheme years: lime and malt extract), any increase in the number previously approved must be added to the amount included in column A or, if the installation is a new entrant (as defined in point (22) of Article 2(1) of the Free Allocation Regulation), to the amount included in column B.
(4) Paragraphs (5) and (6) apply where a calculation (a “relevant calculation”) of the final annual number of allowances to be allocated in respect of the installation for a scheme year is approved by the UK ETS authority under either or both of the following—
(a) Article 24(3)(a)(ii) of the Free Allocation Regulation (renunciation other than in respect of whole installation);
(b) Article 6a of the Activity Level Changes Regulation.
(5) If the effect of the relevant calculation is a final annual number of allowances to be allocated in respect of the installation for the scheme year that is greater than the number that would otherwise be set out in the entry for the installation for the scheme year, the net increase must be added to the amount that would otherwise be included in column B.
(6) If the effect of the relevant calculation is a final annual number of allowances to be allocated in respect of the installation for the scheme year that is less than the number that would otherwise be set out in the entry for the installation for the scheme year, the net decrease must be deducted first from any amount that would otherwise be included in column B, before being deducted from any amount that would otherwise be included in column A.
(7) The total final annual number of allowances to be allocated in respect of the installation for the scheme year (that is to say, the sum of columns A and B) must be included in column C.
(8) If an entry for an installation in the allocation table for the 2026 allocation period includes a provisional figure under article 34AA(6), that figure must be included in column C (and no figure is to be included in column A or B).
