### sch.2-sec.14 Electricity generation
Electricity generation (the relevant activity ) consists of generating electricity by using fuel at a rated capacity of 10MW electrical or more.
The relevant activity does not include co-generating electricity in association with carrying out another environmentally relevant activity.
In the following table, the aggregate environmental score for the relevant activity is the score stated opposite the threshold within which the relevant activity is carried out.
