20 Pipeline delivery module—pipeline emissions

(1) The emissions for the transport of one or more functional units of a batch of a product (the transported quantity) in accordance with the pipeline delivery module, Epipe,transported, in kilograms of CO2-e are worked out using the following formula:

Start formula E start subscript pipe,transported end subscript equals Q start subscript b,transported end subscript times EF start subscript pipe,y end subscript end formula

where:

Qb,transported is the amount of product in the transported quantity in the unit of measurement of the functional unit of the product, measured:

(a) if the product enters the pipeline delivery module immediately after the production pathway has been completed—in accordance with the formula or method specified for working out the amount of the product in a batch of the product for the production pathway; or
(b) in any other case—in accordance with the formula or method specified for working out the amount of the product that reaches the end of the delivery module immediately prior to the pipeline delivery module.

EFpipe,y is the pipeline-specific emission factor for the year (y) in kilograms of CO2-e per functional unit, worked out in accordance with subsection (2).

y is the financial year immediately prior to the financial year in which the batch period started.

(2) For subsection (1), EFpipe,y is worked out using the following formula:

Start formula EF start subscript pipe,y end subscript equals start fraction E start subscript pipe,elec,y end subscript plus E start subscript pipe,fuel,y end subscript over Q start subscript pipe,y end subscript end fraction end formula

where:

Epipe,elec,y is emissions for the electricity supplied for the pipeline delivery module for the year (y) in kilograms of CO2-e, worked out in accordance with section 15, subject to the following:

(a) a reference in section 15:
(i) to production pathway is taken to be a reference to pipeline delivery module; and
(ii) to batch (b) is taken to be a reference to year (y), other than a reference to the batch in the parameter EFscope3,i in subsection 15(9); and
(iii) to production profile is taken to be a reference to delivery profile; and
(b) the value of the parameter Qelec,ex,b in subsection 15(3) is taken to be zero; and
(c) subsection 15(6) does not apply.

Epipe,fuel,y is the emissions from the fuel used for the pipeline delivery module for the year (y) in kilograms of CO2-e, worked out in accordance with section 16 where a reference in that provision:
