96 Exported steam related to the raw sugar manufacturing activity

(1) Gigajoules of steam that: (a) is generated at a sugar mill by heating water; and (b) is transferred or exported to another facility for use at that facility. (2) The metric in subsection (1) is applicable to a facility that: (a) conducts the raw sugar manufacturing activity; and (b) is structured such that energy (including steam and with or without the export of electricity) is intended to be the only output from the facility for a portion of the year under ordinary operating conditions, such as a facility with a seasonal output which exports energy year‑round. (3) The gigajoules of steam exported must be: (a) measured consistently with the NGER (Measurement) Determination, including the principles in section 1.13 and reporting requirements under the NGER Regulations; and (b) calculated as total steam exported for a reporting period; and (c) unless in conflict with paragraph (a), measured consistently at the facility over time.

Note: The amount of gigajoules of a mass of steam at a particular temperature and pressure can be calculated by multiplying the specific steam enthalpy corresponding to that temperature and pressure by the mass of that steam.

(4) The default emissions intensity is 0.0490 t CO2‑e per gigajoule of steam.
