52 Suspending the accreditation of a power station—circumstances specified by Governor in Council
(1) The Governor in Council, by Order published in the Government Gazette, may, specify other circumstances on which the ESC may suspend the accreditation of an accredited power station.
(2) If a circumstance specified in an Order under subsection (1) arises, the ESC may, by written notice, suspend the accreditation of an accredited power station.
(3) An accreditation that is suspended under subsection (2) is suspended for such period (including permanently) as the ESC considers appropriate in all of the circumstances. That period must be specified in the notice.
Any electricity generated by the power station while its accreditation is suspended under this section is to be excluded from all calculations under section 26: see section 26(5).
