Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

(1)

Burning waste as a fuel in an appliance if the appliance has a net rated thermal input of less than 0.4 megawatts or, where the appliance is used together with other appliances, the aggregate net rated thermal input of all the appliances is less than 0.4 megawatts.

(2)

The secure storage of waste intended to be submitted to such burning.

In this paragraph, “net rated thermal input” means the rate at which fuel can be burned at the maximum continuous rating of the appliance multiplied by the net calorific value of the fuel and expressed as megawatts thermal.
