25 Measuring energy consumption
(1) The project proponent for the project must not change, or cause to be changed:
(a) the method under section 71 or 72 by which energy consumption is monitored at sites in the control group or treatment group; or
(b) the metering arrangements for monitoring energy consumption at a site;
if subsection (2) applies.
(2) This subsection applies if:
(a) the change mentioned in subsection (1) is likely to:
(i) result in higher measured energy consumption at sites in the control group than would otherwise have occurred; or
(ii) result in lower measured energy consumption at sites in the treatment group than would otherwise have occurred; and
(b) the change occurs at:
(i) a greater proportion of sites in the control group than sites in the treatment group, or vice versa; or
(ii) an equal proportion of sites in the control group and treatment group, but the basis for choosing the sites at which the change occurs is different for the control group than the treatment group.
(3) However, the treatment under the project may include replacing an existing meter at a site with a different kind of meter.
