(b) small‑scale technology shortfall charge (see Subdivision C of Division 1), which is calculated by reference to a liable entity’s relevant acquisitions of electricity, its exemptions, the number of small‑scale technology certificates it surrenders and the small‑scale technology percentage.
Division 1A deals with the determination of the amount (if any) of a liable entity’s exemption from charge.
Division 2 deals with the renewable power percentage for large‑scale generation shortfall charge.
Division 2A deals with the small‑scale technology percentage for small‑scale technology charge.
