99 Gaseous hydrogen
(1) Tonnes of gaseous hydrogen (H2(g)) that: (a) are in a gaseous state; and (b) are produced as part of carrying on the gaseous hydrogen production activity at the facility; and (c) are of saleable quality; and (d) are not consumed in carrying on the liquefied hydrogen production activity in section 100 of this Schedule; and (e) have not been counted as part of the liquefied hydrogen production variable in section 100 of this Schedule. (2) The metric in subsection (1) is applicable to a facility that conducts the activity of producing gaseous hydrogen through: (a) the physical and chemical transformation of feedstocks that contain hydrogen to produce gaseous hydrogen; or (b) the physical and chemical transformation of water (H2O) to gaseous hydrogen through electrolysis. (3) The activity in subsection (2) is the gaseous hydrogen production activity. (4) The default emissions intensity is 9.01 t CO2‑e per tonne of gaseous hydrogen. (5) The best practice emissions intensity is 7.13 t CO2‑e per tonne of gaseous hydrogen.
