23.—(1) Subject to regulation 24, the “energy consumption” of a participant means energy that is—

(a)supplied to the participant, and

(b)consumed by assets held, or activities carried on, by the participant

but excludes any energy which is supplied by the participant to another person.

(2) For the purposes of paragraph (1)—

(a)energy is supplied to a participant where—

(ii)two or more relevant undertakings agree with S that S will supply energy to them and they are supplied with energy further to that agreement, and one or more of them agrees to be the participant in relation to some or all of that energy supply, or

(iii)the participant supplies energy, other than surplus heat, to itself, and

(b)energy is supplied by a participant to another person (“R”), where the participant (or, in the case of two or more relevant undertakings complying with the Scheme as one participant, one or more of them) agrees with R that the participant will supply energy to R, and R is supplied with energy further to that agreement,

Impact Assessments

Impact Assessments generally accompany all UK Government interventions of a regulatory nature that affect the private sector, civil society organisations and public services. They apply regardless of whether the regulation originates from a domestic or international source and can accompany primary (Acts etc) and secondary legislation (SIs). An Impact Assessment allows those with an interest in the policy area to understand:

  • Why the government is proposing to intervene;
  • The main options the government is considering, and which one is preferred;
  • How and to what extent new policies may impact on them; and,
  • The estimated costs and benefits of proposed measures.
