These Regulations set out the circumstances in which, and the extent to which, electricity generated outside the United Kingdom is to be treated, for the purposes of section 32(5)(a) of the Electricity Act 1989, as generated by a non-fossil fuel generating station.
The prescribed circumstances are that there is a contract for the purchase, at a wattage specified in the contract, of electricity generated by a particular non-fossil fuel generating station; and that there is a contract for the conveyance of that wattage of that electricity to the United Kingdom by means of an interconnector.
The prescribed extent is limited to the capacity of the interconnector being used or, if less, the capacity specified in the contract.
An interconnector is defined (in regulation 2) as a system of electric lines and electrical plant by means of which electricity generated outside the United Kingdom may be conveyed to the United Kingdom.
