(b)is a basic heating repair or replacement measure.

(2) The Administrator must determine the amount of annual cost savings for the qualifying action in accordance with paragraph (3).

(3) The amount of annual cost savings for the qualifying action is—

(a)£0, where—

(i)the heating measure limit in paragraph (4) applies to the qualifying action;

(ii)the participant’s heating repair allowance is exhausted, and the qualifying action is the repair of—

(aa)an efficient boiler; or

(bb)equipment for the generation of heat wholly or partly from biofuel, oil or liquefied petroleum gas; or

(iii)the participant’s heating replacement allowance is exhausted, and the qualifying action is the replacement of—

(bb)an efficient heating system with another efficient heating system of the same kind, other than where the efficient heating system being replaced is a district heating connection or a renewable heating system;

(b)£140 x (1 + F), in any other case.

(4) The heating measure limit in this paragraph applies to a qualifying action if before the Administrator determines the amount of annual cost savings for the qualifying action—

(a)another basic heating repair or replacement measure forming part of the same ECO4 project as the qualifying action in question has had its annual cost savings determined by the Administrator in accordance with paragraph (3); and

(b)the amount of annual cost savings for that other basic heating repair or replacement measure was determined to be at least £140.

(5) For the purpose of paragraph (3)(a), the Administrator must determine, in accordance with article 69, whether the participant’s heating repair allowance or heating replacement allowance is exhausted.

(KM x C + IM + BFR) x D.

(7) Where the determined cost savings for the qualifying action is £0, the partial project score for the qualifying action is £0.
