38 Module-specific loss method delivered amount

(1) Where one or more functional units of a batch of hydrogen (the transported quantity) are stored or transported in accordance with a delivery module (the relevant delivery module), the amount of hydrogen that reaches the delivery gate, Qdel,product, in kilograms, is worked out using the following formula:

Start formula Q start subscript del,product end subscript equals Q start subscript b,transported end subscript times open bracket 1 minus LR start subscript m end subscript close bracket minus Q start subscript self,product end subscript end formula

where:

Qb,transported is the amount of product in the transported quantity (q) in kilograms, measured:

(a) if the product enters the relevant delivery module immediately after the production pathway has been completed—in accordance with section 24; or
(b) in any other case—in accordance with the method or formula specified in subsection 35(3) for working out the amount of the product that reaches the end of the delivery module immediately prior to the relevant delivery module.

LRm is:

(a) if the relevant delivery module (m) is the storage vessel delivery module and the vessel is a large hydrogen storage vessel—worked out in accordance with subsection (4);
(b) if the relevant delivery module (m) is the pipeline delivery module—either:
(i) worked out in accordance with subsection (2); or
(ii) 0.0035; or
(c) in any other case—worked out in accordance with subsection (2) or subsection (4).

Note: LRm represents the loss rate for the delivery module (m).

Qself,product is the amount of product in the transported quantity (q) consumed by the holder of the delivery profile for the purposes of the relevant delivery module (m) in kilograms, monitored or measured in accordance with section 9.

Note: Qself,product represents the amount of product in the transported quantity that is consumed as an energy source for the delivery module and therefore does not reach the delivery gate.

m is the relevant delivery module used to store or transport the transported quantity (q).

(2) For sub-paragraph (b)(i) and paragraph (c) of the definition of LRm in subsection (1), the loss rate for the relevant delivery module, LRm, is either: (a) if the amount worked out in accordance with subsection (3) is greater than or equal to zero—that number; or (b) in any other case—zero. (3) For subsection (2), LRm is worked out using the following formula:

Start formula LR start subscript m end subscript equals start fraction Q start subscript in,m,y end subscript minus Q start subscript out,m,y end subscript over Q start subscript in,m,y end subscript end fraction end formula

where:

Qin,m,y is the total amount of product put into the equipment used to store or transport the product in accordance with the relevant delivery module (m) for the year (y) in kilograms, monitored or measured in accordance with section 9.

Qout,m,y is the total amount of product taken out of the equipment used to store or transport the product in accordance with the relevant delivery module (m) for the year (y) in kilograms, monitored or measured in accordance with section 9.

Note: Qout,m,y includes any amount of product taken out by the holder of the delivery profile.

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

Note: Section 14, which provides for an alternate definition of y where the holder of the delivery profile has an incomplete data set, applies to this subsection.

(4) For paragraph (a) and (c) of the definition of LRm in subsection (1), LRm, is worked out using the following formula:

Start formula LR start subscript m end subscript equals start fraction open bracket Q start subscript in,m,y end subscript plus Q start subscript m,start,y end subscript close bracket minus open bracket Q start subscript out,m,y end subscript plus Q start subscript m,end,y end subscript close bracket over Q start subscript in,m,y end subscript end fraction end formula

where:

Qm,start,y is the total amount of product in the equipment used to store or transport the product in accordance with the relevant delivery module (m) at the start of the year (y) in kilograms, monitored or measured in accordance with section 9.

Qm,end,y is the total amount of product in the equipment used to store or transport the product in accordance with the relevant delivery module (m) at the end of the year (y) in kilograms, monitored or measured in accordance with section 9.

Qin,m,y is the total amount of product put into the equipment used to store or transport the product in accordance with the relevant delivery module (m) for the year (y) in kilograms, monitored or measured in accordance with section 9.

Qout,m,y is the total amount of product taken out of the equipment used to store or transport the product in accordance with the relevant delivery module (m) for the year (y) in kilograms, monitored or measured in accordance with section 9.

Note: Qout,m,y includes any amount of product taken out by the holder of the delivery profile.

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

Note: Section 14, which provides for an alternate definition of y where the holder of the delivery profile has an incomplete data set, applies to this subsection.

(5) In this section:

large hydrogen storage vessel means a vessel for storing hydrogen that has a storage capacity greater than 1,000 kilograms.
