sec.12Works, substations and operating works

### sec.12 Works, substations and operating works Works are anything used for, or in association with, the generation, transmission or supply of electricity. electric lines and associated equipment, apparatus, electrical equipment, buildings, control cables, engines, fittings, lamps, machinery, meters, substations and transformers if they are used for, or in association with, the generation, transmission or supply of, electricity A substation is works used for converting, transforming or controlling electricity. Operating works are— for a generation entity—the generating plant (including battery storage devices), fuel stocks, electrical and other property (including reactive power compensation devices) used for generating electricity or connecting supply to a transmission grid or supply network; or for a transmission entity—the transmission grid and other property (including battery storage devices and reactive power compensation devices) used for operating or managing the transmission grid; or for a distribution entity—the supply network and other property (including battery storage devices and reactive power compensation devices) used for operating or managing the supply network. coal handling facilities for a coal-fired power station and the land where they are situated In this section— battery storage device — means plant that— converts electricity into stored chemical energy; and releases stored chemical energy as electricity; and an electrochemical battery, including a lithium-ion battery and a vanadium redox flow battery a solid-state battery, including a lithium-metal battery includes any equipment necessary for the operation of the plant. reactive power compensation device means a device primarily designed to regulate reactive power in an electrical system. a synchronous condenser s 12 amd 1997 No. 26 s 6 ; 2002 No. 42 s 242 sch 1 ; 2024 No. 15 s 184 (sec.12-ssec.1) Works are anything used for, or in association with, the generation, transmission or supply of electricity. electric lines and associated equipment, apparatus, electrical equipment, buildings, control cables, engines, fittings, lamps, machinery, meters, substations and transformers if they are used for, or in association with, the generation, transmission or supply of, electricity (sec.12-ssec.2) A substation is works used for converting, transforming or controlling electricity. (sec.12-ssec.3) Operating works are— for a generation entity—the generating plant (including battery storage devices), fuel stocks, electrical and other property (including reactive power compensation devices) used for generating electricity or connecting supply to a transmission grid or supply network; or for a transmission entity—the transmission grid and other property (including battery storage devices and reactive power compensation devices) used for operating or managing the transmission grid; or for a distribution entity—the supply network and other property (including battery storage devices and reactive power compensation devices) used for operating or managing the supply network. coal handling facilities for a coal-fired power station and the land where they are situated (sec.12-ssec.4) In this section— battery storage device — means plant that— converts electricity into stored chemical energy; and releases stored chemical energy as electricity; and an electrochemical battery, including a lithium-ion battery and a vanadium redox flow battery a solid-state battery, including a lithium-metal battery includes any equipment necessary for the operation of the plant. reactive power compensation device means a device primarily designed to regulate reactive power in an electrical system. a synchronous condenser - (a) for a generation entity—the generating plant (including battery storage devices), fuel stocks, electrical and other property (including reactive power compensation devices) used for generating electricity or connecting supply to a transmission grid or supply network; or - (b) for a transmission entity—the transmission grid and other property (including battery storage devices and reactive power compensation devices) used for operating or managing the transmission grid; or - (c) for a distribution entity—the supply network and other property (including battery storage devices and reactive power compensation devices) used for operating or managing the supply network. - (a) means plant that— (i) converts electricity into stored chemical energy; and (ii) releases stored chemical energy as electricity; and Examples— • an electrochemical battery, including a lithium-ion battery and a vanadium redox flow battery • a solid-state battery, including a lithium-metal battery - (i) converts electricity into stored chemical energy; and - (ii) releases stored chemical energy as electricity; and - • an electrochemical battery, including a lithium-ion battery and a vanadium redox flow battery - • a solid-state battery, including a lithium-metal battery - (b) includes any equipment necessary for the operation of the plant. - (i) converts electricity into stored chemical energy; and - (ii) releases stored chemical energy as electricity; and - • an electrochemical battery, including a lithium-ion battery and a vanadium redox flow battery - • a solid-state battery, including a lithium-metal battery
