All the energy (both input and output) relating to a "good quality" CHP is totally exempt from the levy so long as the electrical output of the plant is not exported via the national grid.

Climate Change Agreements Combined Heat and Power Assessment Procedure

When Dairy Energy Savings Limited agreed an energy savings target for the Dairy Sector with the Department of Environment, Transport and the Regions (DETR) of a 10 percent reduction in energy to 2010, it was agreed without the inclusion for the potential of Combined Heat and Power (CHP) within the sector. Therefore, within the Underlying Agreement (PP3.02), Section 6.8, Obligations of Operator, it states that:

The operator shall ensure that an appraisal is carried out of the potential for use, or additional use, of combined heat and power in the facilities to which this agreement applies. The appraisal shall be carried out in accordance with a procedure specified by the Secretary of State in a notice served on the operator. The operator shall submit a report to the Secretary of State setting out the results of the appraisal by no later than 30th September 2002.

DETR have now issued us with their CHP Assessment Procedure. Please find attached the following files which constitute the CHP Assessment Procedure to be undertaken for each facility in those sectors where account of CHP opportunities has not been included in sector targets.

It is important to read the "read me" sheet within the spreadsheet before completing the questionnaire.

At this stage DES Ltd is only posting this on the site for your information, the CHP Assessment Procedure for the Dairy Sector will be carried out this summer (August 2001).

Below are two files for download that explain the DETR CHP Assessment Procedure.  Please download either the Word 97 or the Adobe Acrobat file and also the Excel 97 file.

DEFRA has now put on hold the CHP Assessment until further notice, therefore, facilities currently only need to complete stage 1 of the CHP asessment.
