Emissions targets: calculation of later targets where initial targets based on estimatesU.K.
18.—(1) This paragraph applies where an installation's emission targets for the scheme years in an allocation period are required to be calculated under—
(a)paragraph 16(4) or (5);
(b)paragraph 17(4) or (5).
(2) Paragraph 11(1)(f)(i) and (ii) do not require the installation's hospital or small emitter permit to contain emissions targets for scheme years (the “relevant scheme years”) for which, at the date of issue of the permit, the information required to calculate the emission targets is not available.
(3) As soon as reasonably practicable after the information to calculate the installation's emissions targets for the relevant scheme years becomes available, the regulator must vary the installation's hospital or small emitter permit under paragraph 6 of Schedule 6 by adding the emissions targets.
(4) But sub-paragraph (3) does not apply if the regulator has given a conversion notice to the operator of the installation, the effect of which is that the installation will not be a hospital or small emitter for the relevant scheme years.
