“Modifications where carbon capture and storage process used in relation to part of generating station
3A (1) Regulations under section 50(6)(b) may provide for the exemption in section (Introduction of carbon capture and storage: exemption from emissions limit) to apply with modifications in cases where the complete CCS system for the fossil fuel plant relates to only part of the generating station.
(2) For this purpose—
(a) a complete CCS system relates to part of a generating station if it is a system for capturing some or all of the carbon dioxide (or any substance consisting primarily of carbon dioxide) that is produced by, or in connection with, generation of electricity by that part of the generating station, and
(b) “complete CCS system” has the same meaning as in section (Introduction of carbon capture and storage: exemption from emissions limit).”
74C: Schedule 4, page 130, line 29, leave out from “where” to end of line 32 and insert “—
(a) the generating station is used for the first time, or permanently ceases to be used, for the generation of electricity,
(b) any period during which the emissions limit duty does not apply in relation to the plant by virtue of section (Introduction of carbon capture and storage: exemption from emissions limit) begins or ends, or
(c) the generating station, or any CCS plant comprised in the fossil fuel plant, is altered.”
