Determination of base emission for installations which in compliance with the IPPC Permit operate with 20,000-hour derogation. A limited quantity of allowances has been allocated to those installations for the period after 2008. For base emission Bi used for the allocation of allowances is used their verified emissions for 2008 – the year when the 20,000-hour limitation is introduced and the time of operation during this year:
Thermal Power Plant “MARITSA 3”: Emissions 2008 – 728,330 t. It is assumed it will operate evenly during the 2009-2012 period for which there are 1 720 064 tones left to be emitted, or as a base for yearly distribution – Bi for the period 2009-2012 is used the number 430 016 (1 720 064 / 4)
Thermal Power Plant “„BRIKEL””: Emissions for 2008 – 1,751,501 t. It is assumed it will operate evenly during the 2009-2011 period for which there are 2 322 704 t left to be emitted, or as a base for distribution – Bi for the period 2009-2011 is used the number 774 234 (2 322 704 / 3)
The following table illustrates the method of calculation of the base for these thermal power plants (TPP):
