“the Act” refers to Schedule 6 to the Finance Act 2000 M1 ;

“CCL” refers to climate change levy;

“CHPQA” refers to the Combined Heat and Power Quality Assurance Standard, Issue 1, November 2000 originally published by the Department for the Environment, Transport and the Regions (the “Standard”) (including the later of version Final 1.0 or 2.0 of CHPQA Guidance Notes M2 0 to 4 (including 2(S), 3(S) and 4(S)), 10 to 28 and 30);

“station” refers to a combined heat and power station or, in appropriate circumstances, to combined heat and power stations forming at least part of a single CHP Scheme.

(2) But, for the purposes of regulation 3(2), “CHPQA” refers to the current issue of that Standard and current versions of those and any subsequent Guidance Notes.

An issue or version is current for these purposes to the extent that it is neither varied, replaced nor revoked by another issue or version.

(3) These Regulations must be applied in a way consistent with the CHPQA and paragraph (2).

But, for the purposes of regulations 3(2) and 4, any reference in the CHPQA to any relevant “registered” quantity (whether or not mentioned in either regulation) must be treated as a reference to the actual quantity of that name for determination and calculation in accordance with the CHPQA.

That determination and calculation must be on the basis of events in relation to the given station during the given Annual Operation (for “Annual Operation”, see CHPQA Section 4 – 1st January to 31st December).
