The Greenhouse Gas Emissions Trading Scheme Regulations 2012

Made5th December 2012

Laid before Parliament10th December 2012

Coming into force1st January 2013

The Secretary of State is a Minister designated ^M1 for the purposes of section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 ^M2 in relation to the environment.

^M3In accordance with section 2(4) of the Pollution Prevention and Control Act 1999 (“the 1999 Act”) , the Secretary of State has consulted the Environment Agency, the Scottish Environment Protection Agency, and such bodies or persons appearing to the Secretary of State to be representative of the interests of local government, industry, agriculture and small businesses, and such other bodies and persons, as the Secretary of State considers appropriate.

These Regulations make provision for a purpose mentioned in section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972, and it appears to the Secretary of State that it is expedient for the references to EU instruments in these Regulations to be construed as references to those instruments as amended from time to time.

Accordingly the Secretary of State, in exercise of the powers conferred by sections 2 and 7(9) of and Schedule 1 to the 1999 Act ^M4 and by section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972, as read with paragraph 1A of Schedule 2 to the European Communities Act 1972 ^M5, makes the following Regulations ^M6:^C1

PART 2 Stationary installations¶

CHAPTER 1 Permits¶

9 Requirement for permit to carry out regulated activities¶

1 No person may carry out a regulated activity at an installation except to the extent authorised by a permit held by the operator of the installation.

2 Paragraph (1) does not apply in relation to a person carrying out a regulated activity at an Article 27a installation.

10 Applications for and grant of permits¶

1 The operator of an installation (other than an excluded installation) may apply to the regulator for a greenhouse gas emissions permit to carry out a regulated activity at the installation.

2 The operator of an Article 27 installation may apply to the regulator for an Article 27 installation emissions permit to carry out a regulated activity at the installation.

3 However, an application may not be made—

a under paragraph (1) or (2) where a permit has already been granted in respect of the installation and continues to have effect; or

b under paragraph (2) where an Article 27 installation emissions permit has been granted in respect of the installation and has been surrendered or revoked.

3A An Article 27 installation emissions permit that is granted for the purposes of the first allocation period continues to have effect for the purposes of the second allocation period if the installation is deemed to be approved by the European Commission under the first subparagraph of Article 27(2) of the Directive in relation to that period.

4 Following an application under paragraph (1) or (2), the permit must be granted if the regulator is satisfied that—

a the application is duly made, and

b at the time that the permit is granted (or, if later, has effect) the applicant will be capable of monitoring and reporting emissions from the installation in accordance with—

i the monitoring and reporting requirements of the greenhouse gas emissions permit, or

ii the monitoring and reporting conditions of the Article 27 installation emissions permit,

but must otherwise be refused.

5 A permit may be granted under this regulation in respect of more than one installation on the same site, provided that they are operated by the same operator.

6 Paragraph 1 of Schedule 4 makes further provision about applications for permits.

7 Paragraph 2 of Schedule 4 makes provision about the contents of greenhouse gas emissions permits, and paragraph 3 of Schedule 5 makes provision about the contents of Article 27 installation emissions permits.

11 Review, variation and consolidation of permits¶

^F2881 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

2 The regulator may, by giving notice to the operator, vary a permit at any time and may in particular make any variation of the permit that the regulator considers necessary in consequence of—

^F289a . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

b any report made by the operator under Article 69 of the Monitoring and Reporting Regulation 2018; or

c any notification as mentioned in paragraph 2(7)(b) of Schedule 4 (notification of planned changes in operation etc).

3 The regulator may by giving notice to the operator vary a permit where the operator—

a applies to the regulator for such a variation pursuant to a provision of the permit; or

b has failed to comply with a requirement of the permit to apply for such a variation.

4 The regulator may by giving notice to the operator vary a permit in order to comply with regulator's duty under—

a regulation 88(2) or (4); or

b any of the following provisions of Schedule 5—

i paragraph 2(1);

ii paragraph 3(3);

iii paragraph 6(5) or (6);

iv paragraph 7(4)(b), (6)(b) or (7)(b);

v paragraph 8(6) or 8(6A).

5 A notice given under paragraph (2), (3)(b) or (4) may specify a period within which a fee for the variation of the permit must be paid.

6 The regulator may by giving notice to the operator replace a permit with a consolidated permit applying to the same regulated activities, and containing the same or equivalent provisions, in the following circumstances—

a where the permit has been varied;

b where there is more than one permit applying to installations on the same site operated by the same operator.

12 Transfer of permits¶

1 Subject to paragraph (6), the holder of a permit (“the current operator”) and another person may jointly apply to the regulator for the permit to be transferred to that other person (“the new operator”).

2 An application may also be made under paragraph (1) for the partial transfer of a permit; and for that purpose a “partial transfer” is a transfer in respect of—

a some only of the installations to which the permit relates; or

b some only of the parts of an installation to which the permit relates.

3 Paragraph 3 of Schedule 4 makes further provision about the transfer, or partial transfer, of a permit.

4 ^F95... An application under paragraph (1) must be granted if the regulator is satisfied that—

a the application is duly made, and

b the new operator will (from the relevant date) be the operator of the installation and will be capable of monitoring and reporting emissions from the installation in accordance with—

i the monitoring and reporting requirements of the greenhouse gas emissions permit, or

ii the monitoring and reporting conditions of the Article 27 installation emissions permit,

but must otherwise be refused.

5 For the purposes of paragraph (4), the relevant date is the date mentioned in paragraph 3(6), (8) or (10) of Schedule 4 as the case may be.

6 An application for the transfer (or partial transfer) of a permit may not be made in respect of any installation (or part of an installation) that has ceased operation.

12A Transfer of permits: underreporting discovered after transfer¶

1 This regulation applies where—

a after the transfer of a greenhouse gas emissions permit under regulation 12 takes effect, the regulator becomes aware, following a determination of reportable emissions under regulation 44, of an error in a report submitted for a scheme year by the transferring operator under the monitoring and reporting requirements of the permit; and

b as a result of the error, the transferring operator failed to comply with the surrender requirements of the permit in respect of the scheme year to which the error relates.

2 The regulator must give notice to the transferring operator of the error as soon as reasonably practicable.

3 The transferring operator must, within the period of one month beginning with the date the transferring operator received the notice, effect a transfer to the new operator of allowances equal to the reportable emissions in respect of which, as a result of the error, the transferring operator failed to comply with the surrender condition of the permit.

4 The new operator must surrender the allowances within the period of one month beginning with the date of the transfer of the allowances.

5 In paragraph (1), the reference to the transfer of a permit under regulation 12 includes a reference to an application for a transfer of a permit to which effect is given by a variation of the new operator’s existing permit.

6 In this regulation—

a “transferring operator” means the person who was the current operator for the purposes of regulation 12; and

b “new operator” has the same meaning as in regulation 12.

13 Surrender of permits¶

1 Subject to paragraph (4), if an installation has ceased operation the operator must apply to the regulator to surrender the permit authorising regulated activities at the installation.

1A Where a permit authorises regulated activity to be carried out at an installation where a regulated activity is no longer being carried out but it is not technically impossible to resume operation, the operator of the installation may apply to the regulator to surrender the permit.

2 An application under paragraph (1) must be made before the end of the period of one month beginning with the date that the regulated activities at the installation ceased, or such later date as may be agreed with the regulator.

4 The application need not be made where—

a the permit authorises regulated activities at more than one installation, some of which have not ceased operation; and

b by the end of the period mentioned in paragraph (2), the operator has applied to vary that permit so that it no longer applies to any of those installations that have ceased operation.

5 Where the carrying out of regulated activities at an installation mentioned in paragraph (6) has been suspended, but the installation has not ceased operation, the operator may at any time make an application under paragraph (1) but is not obliged to do so.

6 Those installations are—

a an Article 27 installation; or

b an installation that, by virtue of Article 10a(3) of the Directive, is not eligible for an allocation.

7 If the application under paragraph (1) is granted, the notice of determination given to the operator (“notice of surrender”) takes effect on the date specified in the notice.

8 Paragraph 4 of Schedule 4 makes further provision about the surrender of permits.

14 Revocation of permits¶

1 The regulator—

a may at any time revoke a permit by serving on the operator a notice to that effect (a “revocation notice”), and in particular may do so if the operator has failed to pay a fee for the subsistence of the permit; and

b must do so where—

i the regulator becomes aware that the operator has failed to comply with regulation 13(1) and (2);

ii a greenhouse gas emissions permit is held by the operator of an Article 27a installation;

iii an Article 27 installation emissions permit is held by the operator of an Article 27a installation.

2 A revocation notice takes effect—

a 28 days after the date on which it is served; or

b if a later date is specified in the notice, on that date.

3 Paragraph 5 of Schedule 4 makes further provision about the revocation of permits.

CHAPTER 2 Excluded installations: further provision¶

15 Excluded installations : Article 27 installations ¶

A1 An installation is an Article 27 installation for the duration of a particular allocation period if, in relation to that period, it is deemed to be approved by the European Commission under the first subparagraph of Article 27(2) of the Directive, unless a notice has been given to the operator under paragraph 8(1) or (4) of Schedule 5 (in which case the installation ceases to be an Article 27 installation as from the date specified in the notice).

B1 An installation's status as an Article 27 installation expires at the end of the particular allocation period in relation to which it has been excluded.

C1 Where an installation ceases to be an Article 27 installation at the end of the first allocation period in accordance with paragraph (B1) and approval is not deemed in accordance with paragraph (A1) in respect of the second allocation period, paragraph 8(6A) of Schedule 5 applies.

1 Schedule 5 makes further provision about Article 27 installations.

2 Subject to paragraphs (3) and (4), and unless a contrary intention appears, these Regulations apply to an Article 27 installation as they apply to an installation that is not an excluded installation.

ii sub-paragraph (1)(c) and sub-paragraphs (2)(b)(ii), (3), (4) and (6) to (8) were omitted;

b paragraph 5 of Schedule 4, but as if—

ii sub-paragraph (1)(c) and sub-paragraphs (3)(b)(ii), (4), (5) and (7) to (9) were omitted.

15A Excluded installations: Article 27a installations¶

1 An installation is an Article 27a installation for the duration of a particular allocation period, if, in relation to that period, the installation is excluded pursuant to Article 27a of the Directive, unless a notice has been given to the operator under paragraph 5(1) of Schedule 5A (in which case the installation ceases to be an Article 27a installation as from the date specified in the notice).

2 An installation's status as an Article 27a installation expires at the end of the particular allocation period in relation to which it is excluded.

3 Schedule 5A makes further provision about Article 27a installations.

PART 5 Enforcement etc.¶

43 Enforcement notices¶

1 Where the regulator considers that a person (“P”) has contravened, is contravening, or is likely to contravene a relevant provision, the regulator may serve a notice (“enforcement notice”) on P.

2 For the purpose of paragraph (1), a “relevant provision” is any provision of—

a these Regulations;

b the Monitoring and Reporting Regulation 2018;

c a permit; ^F101...

^F101d . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

3 An enforcement notice must—

a state the regulator's view under paragraph (1);

b specify the matters constituting the contravention or making a contravention likely;

c specify the steps that must be taken to remedy the contravention or to ensure that the likely contravention does not occur; and

d specify the period within which those steps must be taken.

4 P must comply with the requirements of the notice within the period so specified.

5 The regulator may withdraw an enforcement notice at any time by further notice served on P.

44 Power to determine reportable emissions¶

1 A power of the regulator to make a conservative estimate of emissions in accordance with Article 70 of the Monitoring and Reporting Regulation 2018 (a “determination of emissions”) may also be exercised where—

a an operator fails to comply with the requirement to submit—

i a surrender report in accordance with paragraph 4(1)(a) and (b) of Schedule 4; or

ii a revocation report in accordance with paragraph 5(1)(a) and (b) of Schedule 4;

b an operator has failed to satisfy the regulator as required pursuant to paragraph 2(3)(c) of Schedule 4 or paragraph 3(8)(c) of Schedule 5; or

^F304c . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

d the regulator considers that such a determination is necessary for the purpose of imposing, or considering whether to impose, a penalty under Part 7.

2 In the case referred to in paragraph (1)(b), in making the determination the regulator may substitute an emissions factor of greater than zero for the factor reported in respect of the bioliquids concerned.

3 The regulator may make a determination of emissions where—

a the operator has failed to submit a report as required pursuant to paragraph 3(8)(b) of Schedule 5; or

b the regulator has reason to believe that the report submitted is incorrect.

4 A determination of emissions—

a must be notified to the operator ^F116... concerned; and

b except where paragraph (5B) applies to that determination, is to be treated as determining all of the reportable emissions from the installation ^F117... for the period to which the determination relates.

5 A notice under paragraph (4) or under paragraph (5C)(a)—

a except where it relates to an Article 27 installation, must be served on the registry administrator (and is in that case to be regarded as an instruction to the registry administrator for the purposes of Article 31(6) of the Registries Regulation 2019); and

b must, where required by Article 70(2) of the Monitoring and Reporting Regulation 2018, specify the corrections that are required to the verified report mentioned ^F119... in paragraph 2(3)(b) of Schedule 4.

5A Paragraph (5B) applies where –

a a determination of emissions has been notified to the operator ^F120... under paragraph (4); and

b the regulator is satisfied that there is a defect in the estimate of the reportable emissions in that determination.

5B The regulator must withdraw the determination and make a further determination of emissions (the “rectified determination”).

5C A rectified determination—

a must be notified to the operator ^F121... concerned; and

b is to be treated as determining all of the reportable emissions from the installation ^F122... for the period to which the determination relates.

5D Where—

a any rectified determination is notified to the operator ^F123... concerned; and

b the regulator is satisfied that there is a defect in the estimate of the reportable emissions in that determination,

the regulator must withdraw the rectified determination and make one or more further rectified determinations.

6 A regulator who makes a determination of emissions under the Monitoring and Reporting Regulation 2018, or by virtue of this regulation, may recover the cost of doing so from the operator ^F124... concerned.

PART 6 Information¶

45 Provision of information¶

1 An authority ^F128... may, by notice served on a regulator (“R”), require R to furnish such information about the discharge of R's functions as the authority ^F128... may require.

2 For the purposes mentioned in paragraph (4), an authority, the Secretary of State, the registry administrator, the KP registry administrator or a regulator (a “relevant body”) may, by notice served on any person, require that person (“P”) to furnish such information as is specified in the notice, in such form and within such period following service of the notice or at such time as is so specified.

3 The information which P may be required to furnish by a notice under paragraph (2) includes information, which, although it is not in P's possession or would not otherwise come into P's possession, is information which it is reasonable to require P to compile for the purpose of complying with the notice.

4 The purposes referred to in paragraph (2) are—

a the discharge of the relevant body's functions; ^F127...

^F127b . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

^F1255 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

2 The Secretary of State may use any information held or obtained for the purposes of these Regulations, and may share such information with other government bodies, for the purpose of preparing and publishing national energy and emissions statistics, including the preparation and publication of a national inventory.

3 For the purpose of paragraph (2), “national inventory” means the estimation, under Article 4(1)(a) of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change ^M18, of anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases by sources and removals of all greenhouse gases by sinks not controlled by the Montreal Protocol.

47 National security¶

1 No information may be published—

^F87a . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

b by the regulator under regulation 71,

if, in the opinion of the Secretary of State, the publication of that information would be contrary to the interests of national security.

2 For the purposes of paragraph (1)(b), the Secretary of State may give to the regulator directions specifying information which may not be published under regulation 71.

3 The regulator must notify the Secretary of State of any information which is excluded from publication in accordance with directions under paragraph (2).

PART 7 Civil Penalties¶

48 Interpretation¶

In this Part—

“carbon price”, in relation to a tonne of carbon dioxide equivalent, is the price referred to in regulation 49;
“penalty notice” means a notice served under regulation 50(1);
“additional penalty notice” means a notice served under regulation 50(3).

49 Carbon Price¶

1 In respect of the scheme year beginning with 1st January 2013, the carbon price is £6.70.

2 From the scheme year beginning with 1st January 2021, and for each subsequent scheme year, DAERA must determine a price as the carbon price for that year, based on the sterling equivalent of the average end of day settlement price (in Euro per tonne of carbon dioxide equivalent) of the December futures contracts for that scheme year.

3 For that purpose—

“average end of day settlement price” means the average over the 12 months ending with the relevant date;
“futures contract” means the futures contract as traded on the single largest carbon market exchange (as determined by volume of sales in the 12 months ending with the relevant date);
“sterling equivalent” means the sterling equivalent converted by reference to the Bank of England annual average spot exchange rate for the 12 months ending with the relevant date;
“the relevant date”, in relation to the year for which the carbon price is set, is 11th November in the preceding year.

4 DAERA must publish a determination made under paragraph (2) one month before the beginning the scheme year in question.

50 Penalty notices¶

1 Where the regulator is satisfied that a person (“P”) is liable to a civil penalty under this Part the regulator must (subject to regulation 51) serve a notice on P.

2 The penalty notice must specify—

a the regulation under which that liability arises;

b the amount of the civil penalty due;

c where appropriate, how that amount is calculated;

d whether or not P may be liable to a civil penalty in accordance with regulation 53(3)(b), 56(2)(b), 68(2)(b), or 69(2)(b) (an “additional daily penalty”); and

e if P will not be liable to an additional daily penalty, the date by which the penalty for which P is liable must be paid.

3 Subject to regulation 51 ^F91..., where the regulator is satisfied that P is liable to an additional daily penalty the regulator must, when the amount of that additional daily penalty can be determined, serve a notice on P specifying—

a the total amount of the civil penalties due; and

b the date by which that amount must be paid.

^F924 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

5 A civil penalty imposed by a penalty notice or an additional penalty notice must be paid to the regulator by the date specified in the notice.

6 Any such civil penalty is recoverable by the regulator—

a as a civil debt; ^F93...

^F93b . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

7 the regulator must, as soon as is reasonably practicable—

a give notice to the authority of the service of any penalty notice or additional penalty notice; and

b pass to the authority any civil penalty that has been paid to the regulator.

51 Discretion in imposing civil penalties¶

1 Where the regulator considers it appropriate to do so, the regulator may (subject to paragraph (2))—

a refrain from imposing a civil penalty;

b reduce the amount of a penalty (including the amount of an additional daily penalty);

c extend the time for payment specified in the penalty notice or additional penalty notice;

d withdraw a penalty notice or an additional penalty notice;

e modify the notice by substituting a lower penalty.

2 The powers under paragraph (1) do not apply in relation to any penalty arising under regulation 54(1).

52 Carrying out a regulated activity contrary to regulation 9¶

1 Where in any scheme year a regulated activity is carried out that is not authorised by a permit, contrary to regulation 9, the operator of the installation (“P”) is at the end of that year liable to the civil penalty in paragraph (2).

2 Subject to paragraph (3), for each such year, the civil penalty is A + (B × C), where—

A is the estimated amount of the costs avoided by P in that year as a result of carrying out a regulated activity without such authorisation;
B is the estimated amount of reportable emissions from the installation in the period during which a regulated activity was carried out without such authorisation;
C is the carbon price for that year.

2A In paragraph (2), the reference to “costs” includes a reference to carbon emissions tax.

3 In imposing the penalty under paragraph (2), the regulator may increase the amount determined under that paragraph by a percentage designed to ensure that the penalty exceeds the amount of any economic benefit that P has obtained as result of the failure to comply with regulation 9.

4 The authority must exercise powers under ^F94... regulation 40 of the Northern Ireland Regulations to give the regulator directions as to—

a the estimation by the regulator of A and B in paragraph (2); and

b the exercise of the regulator's powers under paragraph (3).

53 Failure to comply with a condition of a permit¶

1 An operator is liable to the civil penalties in paragraph (3) where the operator fails to comply (or comply on time) with a condition of a permit included pursuant to—

a paragraph 2(1)(e)(ii) or (iv) of Schedule 4 ^F130...;

b paragraph 3(1)(g), (h) or (i) of Schedule 5; or

c regulation 10 of the 2005 Regulations, other than regulation 10(3) and (4) (or such a condition as modified by virtue of regulation 88 of these Regulations).

2 However, an operator is not liable to those civil penalties where the failure to comply gives rise to a penalty under regulation 57.

3 The civil penalties are—

a £20,000; and

b £500 for each day that the operator fails to comply with the condition following service of a penalty notice, up to a maximum of £45,000.

^F1354 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

53A Failure to transfer or surrender allowances where underreporting discovered after transfer¶

1 A person is liable to a civil penalty where the person fails—

a to effect a transfer (or to effect a transfer on time) of allowances, contrary to regulation 12A(3) (transfer of permits: underreporting discovered after transfer);

b to surrender (or to surrender on time) allowances, contrary to regulation 12A(4).

2 The civil penalty is the sterling equivalent of 20 Euros for each allowance that the person failed to transfer or surrender.

54 Failure to surrender allowances¶

1 A person (“P”) is liable to the civil penalty in paragraph (2) where P fails to surrender sufficient allowances, contrary to regulation 41 ^F136....

2 The civil penalty (“excess emissions penalty”) is the sterling equivalent of 100 Euros for each allowance that P failed so to surrender.

2A Any—

^F137a . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

^F137b . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

c deemed increase in an installation's annual reportable emissions in a recovery year pursuant to paragraph 2(5) of Schedule 4,

must be disregarded for the purpose of calculating the excess emissions penalty.

3 But paragraph (1) is subject to paragraphs (4) to (6).

4 Where paragraph (5) applies, P is not liable to the excess emissions penalty for a failure to surrender allowances in respect of those reportable emissions in a scheme year exceed P's verified annual reportable emissions for that year.

5 This paragraph applies where—

a the regulator becomes aware that P's annual reportable emissions in a scheme year exceed P's verified annual reportable emissions in respect of that year; and

b P failed to surrender a number of allowances equal to the unreported emissions by 30th April in the following scheme year.

6 Where paragraph (5) applies, P is liable to the civil penalty of the sterling equivalent of 20 Euros for each allowance that P failed to surrender in respect of the unreported emissions ^F58....

7 In this regulation—

^F138a . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

^F59b . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

c “unreported emissions” means the emissions mentioned in paragraph (4);

ca “verified annual reportable emissions” means annual reportable emissions that are—

i verified pursuant to ^F139... paragraph 2(3)(b) of Schedule 4;

^F140ii . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . or

iii determined by the regulator pursuant to regulation 44;

d “sterling equivalent” means, subject to paragraph (8), the sterling equivalent converted by reference to the applicable rate of conversion; and

e for that purpose the applicable rate is the first rate of conversion to be published in September of the year preceding the scheme year in which P is liable to the penalty in the C series of the Official Journal of the European Union, adjusted in accordance with paragraph (8).

8 If the last Harmonised Index of Consumer Prices for the member States of the European Union (“HICP”) published by Eurostat before the end of April in the year in which P failed to surrender the allowances shows an average percentage price increase as compared with the last HICP published before the end of April 2012, the sterling equivalent is increased by the same percentage.

9 Where—

a a person was liable to a civil penalty under this regulation for a failure to surrender a number of allowances equal to the unreported emissions in any relevant year; and

b a penalty notice has not been served in respect of that penalty,

the provisions of paragraphs (4) to (7) apply in respect of such emissions.

10 In paragraph (9), “relevant year” means a scheme year during the years 2013 to 2018.

55 Exceeding an emissions target for an Article 27 installation¶

2 The civil penalty is (A – B) × C, where—

A is the amount of annual reportable emissions arising in the scheme year;
B is the emissions target for that year;
C is the carbon price for that year.

56 Failure to pay a penalty for exceeding an emissions target for an Article 27 installation¶

1 An operator of an Article 27 installation is liable to the civil penalties in paragraph (2) where the operator fails to pay a penalty imposed under regulation 55 by the date specified in the penalty notice.

2 The civil penalties are—

a 10% of the penalty imposed under regulation 55; and

b £150 for each day that the operator fails to pay that penalty following service of a penalty notice in respect of the penalty under sub-paragraph (a), up to a maximum of £13,500.

57 Under-reporting of emissions from an Article 27 installation¶

1 An operator of an Article 27 installation is liable to the civil penalty in paragraph (2) where there are reportable emissions in a scheme year (“the unreported emissions”) that—

a were not reported in the report submitted for that year under paragraph 3(8)(b) of Schedule 5; but

b have been determined by the regulator under regulation 44(3).

2 The civil penalty is A + (B × C) where—

A is £5,000;
B is the amount of the unreported emissions;
C is the carbon price for that year.

58 Failure to notify when an Article 27 installation ceases to meet the criteria for being Article 27 ¶

1 An operator of an Article 27 installation (“P”) is liable to the civil penalties in paragraphs (2) and (3) where P fails to comply (or comply on time) with a notification requirement under—

a a condition of a permit included pursuant to paragraph 3(4) or (5) of Schedule 5; or

b paragraph 4(1) or (2) of Schedule 5.

2 For the first scheme year in which P fails to comply with the requirement to notify by 31st March in that year, the civil penalty is £2,500.

3 For the first and each subsequent scheme year in which P has still failed to comply with the notification requirement by 31st October in that year, P is at the end of the following scheme year (“S”) liable to the civil penalty in paragraph (4).

4 The civil penalty is 2 × (A + B), where—

A is £2,500;
B is the avoided compliance costs.

5 In paragraph (4) “avoided compliance costs” means ((W – X) × Y) – Z, where—

W is the amount of annual reportable emissions arising in S;
X is the number of allowances for S to which P would have been entitled in accordance with Article 10a of the Directive, if the installation had not been an Article 27 installation and had been carrying out regulated activities;
Y is the carbon price for S;
Z is any penalty due under regulation 55 in respect of S.

58ZA Exceeding the maximum amount for an Article 27a installation¶

1 The operator of an Article 27a installation is liable to the civil penalty in sub-paragraph (2) where in any scheme year the installation exceeds the maximum amount.

2 The civil penalty is (A – B) x C, where—

A is the reportable emissions arising in the scheme year; B is the maximum amount; C is the carbon price for that year.

3 In this regulation, “maximum amount” has the meaning given in paragraph 1(a) of Schedule 5A.

58ZB Carrying out regulated activity without the necessary permit¶

1 Where the regulator is satisfied that the operator of an Article 27a installation has—

a exceeded the maximum amount in any scheme year; and

b failed to notify the regulator under paragraph 4(1) of Schedule 5A,

the operator of the installation (“P”) is subject to the civil penalty in paragraph (2) in respect of any penalty year.

2 Subject to paragraph (3), the civil penalty is A + (B x C), where— A is the estimated amount of the costs avoided by P in any penalty year as a result of carrying out a regulated activity without the necessary permit; B is the estimated amount of reportable emissions from the installation in the period during which a regulated activity was carried out without the necessary permit; C is the carbon price for that penalty year.

3 In imposing the penalty under paragraph (2), the regulator may increase the amount determined under that sub-paragraph by a percentage designed to ensure that the penalty exceeds the amount of any economic benefit that P has obtained as a result of carrying out a regulated activity without the necessary permit.

4 The authority must exercise powers under regulation 40 of the Northern Ireland Regulations to give the regulator directions as to—

a the estimation by the regulator of A and B in paragraph (2); and

b the exercise of the regulator's powers under paragraph (3).

5 In this regulation—

a “maximum amount” has the meaning given in paragraph 1(a) of Schedule 5A;

b “necessary permit” means the Article 27 installation emissions permit or the greenhouse gas emissions permit which P would have been required to comply with under paragraph 5(3) or (4) of Schedule 5A if P had not failed to notify the regulator under paragraph 4(1) of that Schedule;

c “penalty year” means any scheme year during which P would have been required to comply with the conditions of the necessary permit, if P had not failed to notify the regulator under paragraph 4(1) of Schedule 5A.

3 Transfer of permits¶

1 An application under regulation 12 must—

a contain the information mentioned in sub-paragraph (3); and

b identify the installations, or parts of an installation, to which the application relates (“the transferred units”) and the regulated activities authorised to be carried out at them (“the transferred activities”).

^F1852 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

3 The information referred to in sub-paragraph (1)(a) is—

a in relation to each applicant, as well as the address for service required under Schedule 3 any address to which correspondence relating to the application should be sent;

b in relation to the new operator, the information mentioned in paragraph 1(1)(a)(i) and (ii); and

c a monitoring plan and other information mentioned in paragraph 1(1)(f) submitted by the new operator, or a specification by that operator of the parts of the existing monitoring plan that it is proposed should be varied and any necessary corresponding updating of that information.

4 Where the application relates to a partial transfer, a transfer of the permit is effected by the regulator giving notice—

a granting a permit to the new operator (“the new permit”) which—

i authorises the carrying out of the transferred activities;

ii identifies the transferred units at which they may be carried out; and

iii includes such other provisions as the regulator (subject to sub-paragraph (5)) considers appropriate; and

b making such corresponding variations to the provisions of the permit held by the current operator (“the original permit”) as the regulator (subject to sub-paragraph (5)) considers appropriate.

5 In exercising the powers given by sub-paragraph (4)(a)(iii) and (b), the regulator must ensure that the conditions of the new permit, or the original permit as varied, are (so far as relevant) the same as the conditions that were included in the original permit, subject to such modifications as in the opinion of the regulator are necessary to take account of the transfer.

6 For the purposes of sub-paragraph (4) the new permit, and the variations of the original permit, have effect from a date agreed with the applicants and specified in the new permit and in the original permit as so varied.

7 Where the application does not relate to a partial transfer, the transfer of the permit is effected by the regulator giving notice varying the permit so that it includes—

a the name and other particulars of the new operator;

b the date referred to in sub-paragraph (8); and

c such variations to the monitoring plan as the regulator considers appropriate.

8 From a date agreed with the applicants, the new operator is to be treated as the holder of the permit as varied under sub-paragraph (7).

9 If the new operator already holds a permit (an “existing permit”) for an installation that is on the same site as the transferred unit the regulator may effect a transfer within sub-paragraph (7) by—

a giving notice of such variations to the existing permit as in the opinion of the regulator are necessary to take account of the transfer; and

b cancelling the permit held by the current operator.

10 For the purposes of sub-paragraph (9)—

a the variations of the existing permit have effect from a date agreed with the applicants and specified in the existing permit as so varied; and

b the cancelled permit ceases to have effect on that date.

11 A regulator who effects the transfer of a permit in accordance with this paragraph must notify the registry administrator of the transfer.

^F18612 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

4 Surrender of permits¶

1 The notice of surrender must require the operator, in relation to the scheme year in which it takes effect (“the relevant year”), to—

a submit to the regulator by a date specified in the notice a report (“the surrender report”) specifying the reportable emissions from the beginning of the relevant year until the date on which the notice takes effect;

b ensure that the surrender report is prepared and verified in accordance with the monitoring and reporting requirements of the greenhouse gas emissions permit to which the application to surrender relates (“the permit”); and

c by a date specified in the notice, surrender allowances equal to—

i the reportable emissions specified in the surrender report;

ii where an operator has failed to comply with the surrender requirements of the permit imposed in respect of the last scheme year for which the date for surrendering allowances in accordance with those requirements has passed, the annual reportable emissions in respect of which the operator failed so to comply;

iii where the notice of surrender is served in a scheme year in which an error in the report submitted by an operator under the monitoring and reporting requirements in relation to any earlier scheme year has been discovered, the annual reportable emissions in respect of which, as a result of that error, the operator failed to comply with the surrender requirements of the permit in respect of the scheme year to which the error relates; and

iv where an operator has failed to comply with regulation 13(2), the total number of allowances which by the date on which the notice of surrender is served have been issued in respect of the installation which would not have been issued if the operator had so complied.

2 From the date on which the notice of surrender takes effect—

a the permit ceases to have effect to authorise the carrying out of a regulated activity or to require the monitoring of emissions; but

b any conditions of the permit continue to have effect so far as they are not superseded by the requirements of that notice in accordance with sub-paragraphs (5) to (7) until the regulator certifies—

i that those requirements and any surrender requirements of the permit have been complied with, or

ii that there is no reasonable prospect of further allowances being surrendered by the operator in respect of the installation to which the notice relates.

3 From the scheme year following the relevant year, for the purposes of assessing compliance with any surrender requirements of the permit the amount of reportable emissions of the installation (before any increase in accordance with paragraph 2(5)) is deemed to be zero.

4 Where the regulator certifies in accordance with sub-paragraph (2)(b)(ii) that there is no reasonable prospect of further allowances being surrendered by the operator, the regulator must notify the registry administrator.

5 The requirements specified in a notice of surrender pursuant to sub-paragraph (1)(a) and (b) are to be treated as if they were monitoring and reporting requirements of the permit.

6 Subject to paragraph (7), the requirements specified in a notice of surrender pursuant to sub-paragraph (1)(c) are to be treated as if—

a they were surrender requirements of the permit, and

b the number of allowances required to be surrendered by the notice of surrender were the annual reportable emissions of the installation in respect of the scheme year to which the notice relates.

7 Where the surrender report understates any reportable emissions, the requirement to surrender allowances equal to the amount of the understatement is not superseded by the requirements specified in the notice of surrender.

8 Where the operator fails to comply with the requirements of a notice of surrender included pursuant to sub-paragraph (1), the regulator must notify the registry administrator.

5 Revocation of permits¶

1 The revocation notice must require the operator, in relation to the scheme year in which it takes effect (“the relevant year”), to—

a submit to the regulator by a date specified in the notice a report (“the revocation report”) specifying the reportable emissions from the beginning of the relevant year until the date on which the notice takes effect;

b ensure that the revocation report is prepared and verified in accordance with the monitoring and reporting requirements of the greenhouse gas emissions permit to which the revocation notice relates (“the permit”); and

c by a date specified in the notice, surrender allowances equal to—

i the reportable emissions specified in the revocation report;

iii where the revocation notice is served in a scheme year in which an error in the report submitted by an operator under the monitoring and reporting requirements in relation to any earlier scheme year has been discovered, the annual reportable emissions in respect of which, as a result of that error, the operator failed to comply with the surrender requirements of the permit in respect of the scheme year to which the error relates; and

iv where the notice has been served under regulation 14(1)(b), the total number of allowances which by the date on which the revocation notice is served have been issued in respect of the installation which would not have been issued if the operator had so complied.

2 A revocation notice must specify a period within which the fee for the revocation of the permit must be paid.

3 From the date on which the revocation notice takes effect—

a the permit ceases to have effect to authorise the carrying out of a regulated activity or to require the monitoring of emissions; but

b any conditions of the permit continue to have effect so far as they are not superseded by the requirements of that notice in accordance with sub-paragraphs (6) to (8) until the regulator certifies—

i that those requirements and any surrender requirements of the permit imposed have been complied with, or

ii that there is no reasonable prospect of further allowances being surrendered by the operator in respect of the installation to which the notice relates.

4 From the scheme year following the relevant year, for the purposes of assessing compliance with the surrender requirements of the permit the amount of reportable emissions of the installation (before any increase in accordance with paragraph 2(5)) is deemed to be zero.

5 Where the regulator certifies in accordance with sub-paragraph (3)(b)(ii) that there is no reasonable prospect of further allowances being surrendered by the operator, the regulator must notify the registry administrator.

6 The requirements specified in a revocation notice pursuant to sub-paragraph (1)(a) and (b) are to be treated as if they were monitoring and reporting requirements of the permit.

7 Subject to paragraph (8), the requirements specified in a revocation notice pursuant to sub-paragraph (1)(c) are to be treated as if—

a they were surrender requirements of the permit, and

b the number of allowances required to be surrendered by the revocation notice were the annual reportable emissions of the installation in respect of the scheme year to which the notice relates.

8 Where the revocation report understates any reportable emissions, the requirement to surrender allowances equal to the amount of the understatement is not superseded by the requirements specified in the revocation notice.

9 Where the operator fails to comply with the requirements of a revocation notice included pursuant to sub-paragraph (1), the regulator must notify the registry administrator.

10 A regulator who has served a revocation notice may, at any time before the date on which it takes effect, withdraw the notice.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

5 Emissions target: duty not to exceed¶

An operator must ensure that annual reportable emissions from an Article 27 installation in a scheme year do not exceed the emissions target for that year.

6 Emissions target: increase in the capacity of an Article 27 installation¶

1 Where a capacity increase has occurred at an Article 27 installation after 30th June 2019, the operator may apply to the regulator for an increase in the emissions targets for the installation for the subsequent scheme years within the first allocation period.

2 An application under sub-paragraph (1) must be made—

a by 31st December in the year during which the capacity increase occurred or within 3 months of the date of the capacity increase, whichever is later; or

b where the capacity increase occurred before 1st January 2021, by 30th June 2021.

2A Where a capacity increase occurs at an Article 27 installation after 30th June 2024, the operator may apply to the regulator for an increase in the emissions targets for the installation for the subsequent scheme years within the second allocation period.

2B An application under sub-paragraph (2A) must be made—

a by 31st December in the year during which the capacity increase occurred or within 3 months of the date of the capacity increase, whichever is later; or

b where the capacity increase occurred before 1st January 2026, by 30th June 2026.

3 An application under sub-paragraph (1) or (2A) must contain evidence demonstrating the following—

a the date on which the capacity increase was put into operation;

b that the increase is not temporary;

c that the increase is in operation and is required for the purpose of carrying out the operator's primary business activities;

^F196d . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

e any further matters that the regulator is required to take into account by a direction referred to in sub-paragraph (8).

4 Where the regulator receives an application under sub-paragraph (1) or (2A), and is satisfied with information provided by the operator under sub-paragraph (3), the regulator may calculate new emissions targets for that and subsequent scheme years within the allocation period to which the application relates.

5 Where the regulator calculates new emissions targets pursuant to sub-paragraph (4), the regulator must vary the permit by substituting the new emissions targets for the existing targets.

6 Where after having varied the permit under sub-paragraph (5) the regulator is subsequently satisfied that the evidence provided by the operator under sub-paragraph (3) is incorrect or incomplete, the regulator may recalculate those new emissions targets and vary the permit accordingly by making a new substitution of emissions targets.

7 However, the increase in an emissions target under sub-paragraph (4) or (6) may not result in an emissions target which exceeds the maximum amount.

8 The authority must exercise powers under ^F198... regulation 40 of the Northern Ireland Regulations, to give the regulator directions as to—

a the further matters required to be taken into account when considering an application under sub-paragraph (1) or (2A); and

b the calculation or recalculation of emissions targets under sub-paragraphs (4) or (6).

9 In this paragraph—

a “capacity increase” means an increase in an installation’s installed capacity whereby one or more identifiable physical changes relating to its technical configuration and functioning other than a replacement of an existing production line takes place;

b “installed capacity” means—

i for the purpose of calculating new emission targets for the first allocation period, the installation’s installed capacity on 30th June 2019;

ii for the purpose of calculating new emission targets for the second allocation period, the installation’s installed capacity on 30th June 2024;

iii in the case of an installation which has had a capacity increase either since 30th June 2019, or since 30th June 2024, as the case may be, the installed capacity of the installation following the last capacity increase;

^F262d . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

7 Banking an overachieved emissions target¶

1 ^F202... In this paragraph “bankable amount” in relation to a scheme year means the difference between—

a the emissions target for that year; and

b the amount of reportable emissions stated in the emissions report for that year.

^F2002 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

^F2003 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

4 Subject to sub-paragraphs (5) and (8), where for any scheme year (“S”) the bankable amount is greater than zero the regulator—

a may increase the emissions target for the installation for the following scheme year by the bankable amount; and

b must in that case vary the permit by substituting that increased emissions target for the existing target.

5 ^F201... If increasing the emissions target under sub-paragraph (4) would result in an emissions target which exceeds the maximum amount, the increased emissions target must instead be equal to the maximum amount.

6 Where the amount of reportable emissions stated in the emissions report for S is amended following a determination of emissions under regulation 44(3), the regulator must—

a calculate the bankable amount using the data as so determined; and

b where an increased emissions target has been substituted under sub-paragraph (4)(b), make a further variation of the permit to substitute a revised emissions target.

7 Subject to paragraph (8), where an increased emissions target for a scheme year has been substituted following an application under paragraph 6(1), but the application was determined in the following year, the regulator must—

a calculate any bankable amount for the scheme year using that increased target; and

b vary the permit to substitute a revised emissions target for the following year, based on the amount so calculated.

8 The regulator may not vary an emissions target under sub-paragraph (4)(a) or (7)(a) for a scheme year which begins after the end of the allocation period during which any increase has occurred.

8 Termination of an Article 27 installation emissions permit¶

1 Where the regulator is satisfied that the annual reportable emissions from an Article 27 installation have exceeded the maximum amount, the regulator must, as soon as is reasonably practicable, give a notice to the operator.

2 A notice under sub-paragraph (1) must state that, from the beginning of the scheme year following the year in which the notice is given—

a the installation will not be treated as an Article 27 installation; and

b the operator will be required to comply with the conditions of a greenhouse gas emissions permit in respect of the installation for the remainder of the allocation period during which the notice is given.

3 This sub-paragraph applies where the regulator is satisfied that the operator of an Article 27 installation has—

a committed a sufficiently serious breach of the conditions of the Article 27 installation emissions permit, or

b failed to pay to the regulator the penalty imposed under regulation 56 within one month after the date specified in the penalty notice.

4 Where sub-paragraph (3) applies the regulator may revoke the permit under regulation 14 or give a notice to the operator in accordance with sub-paragraph (5).

5 The notice must state that, from the beginning of the scheme year following the year in which notice is given—

a the installation will not be treated as an Article 27 installation; and

6 Where notice is given under sub-paragraph (1) or (4), the regulator must vary the Article 27 installation emissions permit, with effect from the 1st January in the scheme year following the year in which the notice was given (“the date of conversion”), so that the provisions of the permit that satisfy the requirements of paragraph 3 are replaced by provisions satisfying the requirements of paragraph 2 of Schedule 4.

6A Where regulation 15(C1) applies, the regulator must vary the excluded installation emissions permit, with effect from 1st January 2026, so that the provisions of the permit that satisfy the requirements of paragraph 3 of this Schedule are replaced by provisions satisfying the requirements of paragraph 2 of Schedule 4.

7 In varying a permit under sub-paragraph (6), the regulator may make only such variations as appear to the regulator to be necessary in consequence of the installation ceasing to be treated as an Article 27 installation.

8 A variation of a permit under sub-paragraph (6) does not affect any obligations of the operator under the permit in respect of emissions arising from activities prior to the date of conversion.

9 Where—

a notice is given under sub-paragraph (1) or (4), and

b the operator holds a registry account with Article 27 status in respect of the installation,

the regulator must give notice to the registry administrator, in accordance with the Registries Regulation 2019, to change the status of the account to open from the year beginning with the date of conversion.

10 Where sub-paragraph (3) applies and the permit is revoked, the regulator must give notice to the registry administrator in accordance with the Registries Regulation 2019 to close the account.

SCHEDULE 5A ¶

Regulations 15A, 58ZA, 58ZB

1 Interpretation¶

In this Schedule—

a “maximum amount” means an amount of less than 2,500 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent, disregarding emissions from biomass;

b “the operator's preferred alternative permit” has the meaning given in paragraph 3(1).

2 Duty to monitor emissions¶

1 The operator of an Article 27a installation must monitor the installation's emissions of carbon dioxide equivalent in accordance with an appropriate monitoring plan.

2 An appropriate monitoring plan for the first allocation period is a monitoring plan that—

a was approved in relation to the installation in accordance with Articles 11 to 13 of the Monitoring and Reporting Regulation, for the purposes of the scheme year immediately before the first allocation period; or

b is otherwise approved by the regulator, following an application made by the operator, as a plan that is capable of monitoring whether the installation has exceeded the maximum amount in any scheme year.

3 An appropriate monitoring plan for the second allocation period is a monitoring plan that—

b was approved in relation to the installation in accordance with Article 11 to 13 of the Monitoring and Reporting Regulation 2018, for the purposes of the scheme year immediately before the second allocation period; or

c is otherwise approved by the regulator, following an application made by the operator, as a plan that is capable of monitoring whether the installation has exceeded the maximum amount in any scheme year.

3 The operator's preferred alternative permit¶

1 The operator of an Article 27a installation may notify the regulator that, if the installation exceeds the maximum amount in any scheme year, the operator prefers to comply with the conditions of an Article 27 installation emissions permit or, alternatively, a greenhouse gas emissions permit in respect of the installation (“the operator's preferred alternative permit”).

2 A notice under sub-paragraph (1) must be received by the regulator by 31st August 2024, in relation to the second allocation period.

4 Duty to notify if emissions exceed maximum amount during an allocation period¶

1 The operator of an Article 27a installation must notify the regulator by the relevant date if the reportable emissions from the installation in any scheme year exceed the maximum amount.

2 For the purposes of sub-paragraph (1), the relevant date is 31st March in the year following the scheme year in question.

5 Termination of Article 27a status¶

1 Where the regulator is satisfied that an Article 27a installation has exceeded the maximum amount in any scheme year, the regulator must, as soon as is reasonably practicable, give a notice to the operator.

2 A notice that is given pursuant to sub-paragraph (1) must state that, from the beginning of the scheme year following the year in which the notice is given—

a the installation will not be treated as an Article 27a installation; and

b the operator will be required to comply with the conditions of the operator's preferred alternative permit for the remainder of the allocation period during which the notice is given.

3 Where the regulator has not received notification of the operator’s preferred alternative permit in accordance with paragraph 3, the notice under sub-paragraph (1) must state that, from the beginning of the scheme year following the year in which the notice is given, until the end of the allocation period during which the notice is given, the operator will be required to comply with the conditions of a greenhouse gas emissions permit in respect of the installation.

4 The operator of an Article 27a installation who has received a notice pursuant to sub-paragraph (1) may apply for—

a a greenhouse gas emissions permit, under regulation 10(1); or

b an Article 27 installation emissions permit, under regulation 10(2),

whichever is stated in the notice given pursuant to sub-paragraph (2)(b) or sub-paragraph (3).

SCHEDULE 12 ¶

Appeals (Northern Ireland)

Regulation 78(4)

1 A person who wishes to appeal to the Planning Appeals Commission (“the appeals commission”) under regulation 73(1) or 74(1) against a decision of the chief inspector or registry administrator must give to the appeals commission written notice of the appeal together with a statement of the grounds of appeal.

2 The appeals commission must as soon as is reasonably practicable send to the regulator or registry administrator a copy of that notice and that statement.

3 An appellant may withdraw an appeal by notifying the appeals commission; and the appeals commission must as soon as is reasonably practicable notify the regulator or registry administrator of that withdrawal.

2Notice of appeal in accordance with paragraph 1 is to be given before the expiry of the period of 47 days beginning with the date on which the decision takes effect.

1 The appeals commission must determine the appeal and section 204(1), (3) and (4) of the Planning Act (Northern Ireland) 2011 applies in relation to the determination of the appeal as they apply in relation to the determination of an appeal under that Order.

2 The appeals commission must determine the process for determining appeals taking into account any requests of either party to the appeal.

4An appeal under this Schedule must be accompanied by any fee for the appeal prescribed in regulations made under section 223(7)(b) of the Planning Act (Northern Ireland) 2011; and for that purpose section 223(7)(b) has effect as if a reference to an appeal under that Act included a reference to an appeal under these Regulations.

Explanatory Note¶

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations implement Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council establishing a scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Community and amending Council Directive 96/61/EC (“the Directive”). In particular, they implement the amendments to the Directive made by Directive 2009/29/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council. These Regulations also consolidate, with amendments, and replace previous sets of implementing regulations (S.I. 2005/925 and S.I. 2010/1996) and their amending instruments.

Under the EU emissions trading scheme for greenhouse gases (“EU ETS”) an overall cap is set for emissions of greenhouse gases from specified activities. Operators must monitor and report emissions, and surrender sufficient emissions trading allowances to cover their emissions for each year. A proportion of the total number of allowances is issued free of charge to operators, and the remainder is auctioned. Operators may also buy and sell allowances on the secondary market. Following the amendments made by Directive 2008/101/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council, EU ETS has been extended to cover certain aviation activities (limited to flights arriving in or departing from the European Economic Area).

The Regulations also contain provisions implementing, where necessary, a number of instruments made under the Directive by the European Commission, in particular—

Commission Regulation (EU) No 920/2010 for a standardised and secured system of registries pursuant to Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council and Decision No 280/2004/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council;
Commission Regulation (EU) No 1193/2011 establishing a Union Registry for the trading period commencing on 1 January 2013, and subsequent trading periods, of the Union emissions trading scheme (“the Registries Regulation 2011”);
Commission Regulation (EU) No 601/2012 on the monitoring and reporting of greenhouse gas emissions pursuant to Directive 2003/87/EC (“the Monitoring and Reporting Regulation”);
Commission Regulation (EU) No 600/2012 on the verification of greenhouse gas emission reports and tonne-kilometre reports and the accreditation of verifiers pursuant to Directive 2003/87/EC; and
Commission Decision 2011/278/EU determining transitional Union-wide rules for harmonised free allocation of emission allowances pursuant to Article 10a of Directive 2003/87/EC.

Certain installations with low emissions (as well as installations primarily providing services to a hospital) are permitted to opt out of the emissions trading system, provided that equivalent measures are put in place to limit their emissions. These Regulations accordingly provide for equivalent measures in the case of such “excluded installations”.

These Regulations extend to the whole of the United Kingdom. However, greenhouse gas emissions trading is a devolved matter in Scotland, a transferred matter in Northern Ireland, and in Wales is an area where the Welsh Ministers exercise a wide range of executive functions. The Regulations accordingly provide for distinct “regulators” or “authorities” in relation to those different parts of the United Kingdom. The “regulator” may be the Environment Agency, the Scottish Environment Protection Agency, or the chief inspector in Northern Ireland; and the corresponding “authority” will be the Secretary of State or the Welsh Ministers, the Scottish Ministers, or the Department of the Environment in Northern Ireland. In the case of certain offshore installations, including those on the United Kingdom Continental Shelf, the Secretary of State is the regulator as well as the authority.

Regulation 2 requires the Secretary of State to review the operation and effect of these Regulations and publish a report within five years after they come into force and within every five years after that. Following a review it will fall to the Secretary of State to consider whether the Regulations should remain as they are, be revoked, or be amended. A further instrument would be needed to revoke the Regulations or to amend them.

Regulation 3 contains definitions of various expressions used in the Regulations. In particular, this regulation defines who are the “regulator” and the corresponding “authority” in relation to an installation.

Regulation 4 and Schedule 1 provide that the Regulations bind the Crown, subject to the power of the Secretary of State to certify that powers of entry may not be exercised in relation to particular Crown premises, and to provisions regarding the service of documents.

Regulation 5 and Schedule 2 provide rules for the service of notices and other documents under the Regulations.

Regulation 6 and Schedule 3 lay down requirements for the submission of applications, notices or reports under the Regulations (and under permits or aviation emissions plans), and for the determination of applications by the regulator.

Regulation 7 enables the chief inspector in Northern Ireland to delegate functions under these Regulations to other inspectors appointed under the Pollution Prevention and Control Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2003, and enables the Department of the Environment in Northern Ireland to give directions with respect to the exercise of functions under these Regulations.

Regulation 8 provides for the implementation of a number of European Commission Regulations, by designating the appropriate authorities to perform functions under those instruments (which are otherwise directly applicable in United Kingdom law). See also regulation 74 and regulation 80(2) to (4).

Part 2, together with Schedules 4 to 6, contains provisions that relate solely to stationary installations (as opposed to aircraft operators).

Regulation 9 requires a permit to be held by the operator of an installation before a regulated activity is carried out at the installation. “Permit”, “regulated activity” and “installation are defined in regulation 3(1), and “operator” is defined by regulation 3(2). A permit may be either a greenhouse gas emissions permit or an excluded installation emissions permit, and may be granted in respect of part only of an installation.

Regulation 10(1) and (3) to (5) and paragraphs 1 and 2 of Schedule 4 make provision for the application for, and the grant of, a greenhouse gas emissions permit. Regulation 10(2) and (3) to (5)), paragraph 1 of Schedule 4 and paragraph 3 of Schedule 5 make provision for the application for, and the grant of, an excluded installation emissions permit. In certain circumstances a greenhouse gas emissions permit must be converted into an excluded installation emissions permit.

Regulation 11 provides for the review, variation and consolidation of permits.

Regulation 12 and paragraph 3 of Schedule 4 make provision for the transfer of permits. A transfer may relate to all the installations covered by the permit, or may be a “partial transfer” that relates to some only of the installations covered (or to parts only of an installation).

Regulation 13 requires a permit to be surrendered if regulated activities cease to be carried out at the installation (as defined by regulation 3(3)), and paragraph 4 of Schedule 4 imposes further requirements in respect of such a surrender.

Regulation 14 allows the regulator to revoke a permit, and requires the regulator to do so where the permit has not been surrendered as required by regulation 13(1). Paragraph 5 of Schedule 4 imposes further requirements in respect of such revocations.

Regulation 15 and Schedule 5 make further provision for excluded installations. Certain requirements of these Regulations do not apply to such installations, and others apply in a modified form. Although the requirement to surrender allowances under regulation 41 does not apply in the case of an excluded installation emissions permit, Schedule 5 contains equivalent measures limiting the emission of greenhouse gases. Thus an excluded installation emissions permit sets a target for emission reduction in each year, and the operator is liable to a penalty for exceeding such a target.

Regulation 6 and Schedule 6 make provision for the free allocation of allowances to those installations that are entitled to such an allocation.

Regulations 17 to 19 make provision for the exercise of powers of entry, and the charging of fees, in relation to an offshore installation (as defined in regulation 3(1)).

Part 3, together with Schedules 7 to 10, contains provisions that relate solely to aircraft operators. These replace provisions previously contained in the Aviation Greenhouse Gas Emissions Trading Scheme Regulations 2010. This Part imposes obligations on operators defined as “UK administered operators” (previously known as “UK operators”), and on a subset of those operators defined as “UK aircraft operators” (previously known as “aircraft operators”). Subject to the qualifications noted below, a “UK administered operator” is a person who is specified as an aircraft operator to be administered by the United Kingdom in the list published by the European Commission under Article 18a(3) of the Directive; and a “UK aircraft operator” is a UK administered operator who has carried out aviation activities in the relevant calendar year. All UK administered operators are assigned to a “regulator” for the purposes of these Regulations (see regulations 27 to 29). For the purposes of this Part, a reference to a “member State” of the EU includes a reference to an EEA state (and therefore includes Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein).

Regulation 21 requires the Civil Aviation Authority to provide any assistance or advice that may be requested by the regulator (but in doing so it may recover its reasonable expenses).

Regulation 22 requires the Secretary of State in certain circumstances to designate a person as a person to whom these Regulations apply, where that person has been omitted from the Commission's list under Article 18a(3) of the Directive. Regulation 23 allows such a person to apply to the Secretary of State to be so designated. Once designated, the person concerned will then be treated as a “UK administered operator” for the purposes of these Regulations.

Regulation 24 allows the regulator to deem a person to be a UK administered operator for the whole of a calendar year, even though that person was administered for a part of that year by another member State. However, this does not allow a civil penalty to be imposed in respect of a failure to comply with these Regulations that occurred while the person was not administered by the United Kingdom.

Regulation 25 allows the Secretary of State to designate a UK administered operator as a “Gibraltar operator”, where the Secretary of State is satisfied that the operator is regulated for the purposes of the Directive under Gibraltar legislation. The consequence is that the operator will no longer be a “UK administered operator” for the purposes of these Regulations.

Regulation 26 defines who, in a given calendar year, is to be regarded as a “UK aircraft operator” for the purposes of these Regulations. The person concerned must be a UK administered operator who has performed an aviation activity (within the meaning of Annex 1 to the Directive) in that year, or (in certain circumstances) who is the owner of the aircraft used to perform that activity.

Regulations 27 to 29 define who, for purposes of these Regulation, is the “regulator” of a UK administered operator. Where the operator is a United Kingdom company, the regulator is either the Environment Agency, the Scottish Environment Protection Agency, or the chief inspector in Northern Ireland, depending upon the location of the company's registered office. Otherwise the operator will in the first instance be regulated by the Environment Agency, with provision for a transfer to different regulator for the subsequent eight-year trading period, following an assessment of the proportion of emissions that are attributable to the relevant part of the United Kingdom.

Regulation 30 and Schedules 7 and 8 deal with the free allocation of aviation allowances. For each trading period, an existing UK administered operator is able to apply for such an allocation after monitoring and reporting their activity in the relevant benchmarking year. New UK aircraft operators, or those who have increased their activity by a specified percentage since the benchmarking year, may apply for an allocation to the special reserve set aside for that purpose. Applications are submitted to, and eventually decided by, the European Commission under the rules laid down by the Directive.

Chapter 4 of this Part deals with the monitoring and reporting of emissions from aviation activities.

Regulations 32 to 34 provide for applications to be made for a plan (“emissions plan”) setting out how emissions are to be monitored in accordance with the Monitoring and Reporting Regulation. Regulation 32(1) requires a UK administered operator to apply for a such a plan in accordance with the Article 51(1) that Regulation. This requires an application to be made 4 months before beginning aviation activity, although that deadline can be relaxed in certain circumstances. Where the less stringent deadline is relied upon, the operator must provide a satisfactory explanation for doing so (regulation 32(4)). The operator may at any time take the precaution of applying for an emissions plan (regulation 32(5)), and on first becoming a UK administered operator must either so apply or notify the regulator under regulation 33.

Regulation 35 requires emissions to be monitored each year, and a verified emissions report to be submitted to the regulator by 31st March in the following year. As in the case of stationary installations, the rules for monitoring, reporting and verification are laid down by the Monitoring and Reporting Regulation and the Verification Regulation.

Regulation 36 requires that the emission plans issued by the various regulators contain the appropriate conditions, and imposes a duty to comply with the conditions in an emissions plan. Regulation 37 provides for the variation of an emissions plan, either on application by the operator or otherwise.

Chapter 5, together with Schedules 9 and 10, provides for sanctions to be imposed on aircraft operators, in addition to the civil penalties imposed under Part 7. These non-pecuniary sanctions are of two kinds: detention (and possibly sale) of an aircraft under regulation 39 and Schedule 9; and the application for, and enforcement of, an EU- wide operating ban under regulation 40 and Schedule 10.

Under regulation 39(1) an aircraft that is operated by a UK administered operator may be detained if a civil penalty has not been paid within 6 months of the date that the penalty is due. Aircraft subject to an operating ban may also be detained. Where the aircraft is not required to be released under paragraph 3 of Schedule 9, it may then be sold following an order of the court. The proceeds of sale may be used to discharge unpaid civil penalties, certain duties and charges, and the expenses of detention.

Where all other enforcement measures have failed, a member State may apply for an EU-wide operating ban to be imposed by the European Commission under Article 16(10) of the Directive. Schedule 10, paragraph 1, provides for such application to be made by the Secretary of State, and paragraph 2 provides for the enforcement of a ban imposed as a result of such a request (or as a result of a request made by another member State).

Part 4 sets out the requirements regarding the surrender of allowances. The operator of an installation (regulation 41) or a UK aircraft operator (regulation 42) must surrender sufficient allowances to cover annual reportable emissions for each year. In the case of an installation the relevant requirements are conditions of the permit (paragraph 2(4) of Schedule 4). The allowances must be surrendered by 30th April in the year following the year in which the emissions arise. Where an insufficient number of allowances are surrendered, the deficit is deemed to be added to the total amount to be surrendered in the following year (paragraph 2(5) of Schedule 4, and regulation 42(2)). Unlike a UK aircraft operator, the operator of an installation may not surrender for that purpose “aviation allowances” allocated or auctioned under Chapter 2 of the Directive.

Regulation 43 enables the regulator to serve an enforcement notice in respect of an existing or future breach of these Regulations, of the Monitoring and Reporting Regulation, or of a permit or aviation emissions plan. The notice must specify what is required to be done to ensure compliance.

Regulation 44 supplements the power to determine the emissions of an installation (or of a UK aircraft operator) given to the regulator by Article 70 of the Monitoring and Reporting Regulation. Thus such a determination may also be made where the operator of an installation has failed to submit a surrender or revocation report under paragraph 4 or 5 of Schedule 4, and may be made for the purpose of imposing a civil penalty or enforcing certain requirements of Schedule 5. The cost of making a determination may be recovered from the operator or UK aircraft operator concerned.

Regulation 45 enables the Secretary of State, or an authority, to obtain relevant information from the regulator, and enables the Secretary of State, or an authority, regulator or registry administrator to obtain relevant information from other persons.

Regulation 46 limits the circumstances in which information obtained under the Regulations may be published or disclosed, and regulation 47 imposes restrictions on the publication of certain information where this would (in the opinion of the Secretary of State) be contrary to the interests of national security.

Part 7 provides for the imposition of civil penalties for the breach of various obligations arising under the Regulations.

Regulation 49 provides for the setting of a “carbon price” for the purposes of certain of these penalties (see below). The procedure for the service of penalty notices is set out in regulation 50, which also provides for a penalty to be recovered as a civil debt. Regulation 51 gives the regulator a discretion in imposing a penalty (other than the penalty under regulation 54(1) for a failure to surrender sufficient allowances).

Regulations 54 to 70 set out the various penalties that apply, which in some cases require a calculation to be made by the regulator. The carbon price set under regulation 49 is used in the calculation of the penalties under regulations 52, 55, 57 and 58. Regulation 52(4) requires authorities to give directions to as to the calculation of a penalty imposed under regulation 52(1).

Regulation 71 requires the regulator to publish the name of any person on whom a penalty for non-surrender of allowances has been imposed under regulation 54(1).

Part 8 provides for appeals against decisions taken under the Regulations or under the Registries Regulation 2010 or 2011.

Regulations 73 and 74 specify which decisions be appealed. There is no limitation of the grounds on which an appeal may be brought. An appeal lies to the appeal body defined by regulation 75, which will be either the First-tier tribunal, the Scottish Ministers, or the Planning Appeals Commission in Northern Ireland. Regulation 76 sets out the circumstances in which the effect of a decision is suspended following the appeal. Regulation 77 provides for the powers of the appeal body in determining the appeal, which may include substituting a new decision for the decision under these Regulations that is appealed against, or giving directions to the regulator or to the registry administrator.

^M29^M30Regulation 78, with Schedules 11 and 12, provides the procedure for appeals where the appeal body is the Scottish Ministers or the Planning Appeals Commission. The procedure for appeals to the First-tier Tribunal, on the other hand, is provided by the Tribunal Procedure (First-tier Tribunal) (General Regulatory Chamber) Rules 2009 . Appeals are assigned to the General Regulatory Chamber of the First-tier Tribunal by virtue of article 3(a) of the First-tier Tribunal and Upper Tribunal (Chambers) Order 2010 .

Part 9 supplements, where necessary, the directly applicable provisions of the Registries Regulation 2011. That Commission Regulation implements Article 19(1) of the Directive, which requires all allowances issued from 1 January 2012 to be held in a Union Registry on accounts managed by the member States. Regulation 8(1) designates the Environment Agency as the UK “national administrator” for the purposes of that Regulation. When acting in that capacity, the Environment Agency is referred to in these Regulations as the “registry administrator”. The Environment Agency also continues to operate a national registry for the purposes of the United Kingdom's obligations under the Kyoto Protocol. In that capacity it is known as the “KP registry administrator”.

Regulation 80(1) allows the registry administrator to require users of the Union Registry to comply with reasonable terms and conditions. Regulation 80(2) to (4) allocates responsibility for certain procedures under the Registries Regulation 2011, and regulation 80(6), (8) and (9) provides for circumstances in which a registry account must blocked. Regulation 80(15) enables the registry administrator to refuse to open an account, or to approve an authorised representative, where the person concerned is not a fit and proper person. Regulation 81 makes provision for the UK Registry operated for the purposes of the Kyoto Protocol.

Regulation 82 provides for the recovery by the regulator of unpaid fees, either through the court in proceedings for the recovery of a civil debt, or by means of the seizure and sale of allowances.

Regulation 83 provides for the issue of guidance by the authority to the regulator, and by the Secretary of State to the registry (or KP registry) administrator.

Part 11 provides for revocations, savings and transitional provisions.
