Guidance: UK ETS technical guidance: Free Allocation Regulation (FAR)

Imported from official source

These guidance documents are for operators and explain the different elements of free allocation applications and calculations:

  • UK ETS 11 FAR: Determining allocation at the installation level explains how the allocation methodology is applied at the installation level, including the impact of the provisions designed to address the exposure to a significant risk of carbon leakage. It describes the different types of sub-installation defined in the methodology and the approach for determining the allocation for each one
  • UK ETS 13 FAR: Monitoring and reporting in relation to the free allocation rules explains the requirements for monitoring and reporting all data required for the free allocation of UK allowances and the Baseline Data Collection
  • UK ETS 14 FAR: Verification of FAR baseline data reports, annual activity level data, and validation of MMPs provides guidance on the verification of data relevant to the free allocation of allowances (baseline data and activity level data) as well as the accreditation of verifiers that conduct verification activities under the UK ETS.
  • UK ETS 15 FAR: Cross-boundary heat flows explains the allocation of allowances for heat flows across an installation boundary where the heat is defined as measurable heat. The treatment of heat imports and exports to and from UK ETS installations, non-UK ETS installations and district heating networks is described
  • UK ETS 16A FAR: Reporting on cessation of operations provides guidance to operators for when an installation or sub-installation has ceased operation, the impact on permit surrender and free allocation and the circumstances in which a decarbonisation exemption may apply.
  • UK ETS 17 FAR: Waste gases and process emissions sub-installations provides guidance on free allocation to installations engaged in the production and consumption of waste gases and the associated allocation methods, with a focus on process emissions sub-installations
