#### 712 Electricity baseline for product
The electricity baseline for calculating the amount of a liable entity’s exemption in respect of the production of liquefied natural gas is 0.0640 MWh per tonne of liquefied natural gas that:
(a) has a concentration of methane (CH4) equal to or greater than 70%; and
(b) is produced as part of carrying on the emissions‑intensive trade‑exposed activity; and
(c) is transported (either as a gas or liquid) away from the facility where the natural gas was liquefied and not taken back to that facility.
> Note: A tonne of liquefied natural gas transported away from the facility does not include any liquefied natural gas that is transferred to the transportation vessel but boils off and returns to the facility.
