“Schedule 5

In this Schedule—

‘AD’ means anaerobic digestion;

‘anaerobic digestion’ means the process by which biomass material is broken down by micro-organisms under anaerobic conditions, and where the resulting biogas is used to generate electricity;

‘biomass’ means the biodegradable fraction of products, waste and residues from biological origin from agriculture (including vegetal and animal substances), forestry and related industries including fisheries and aquaculture, as well as the biodegradable fraction of industrial and municipal waste;

‘CHP’ means combined heat and power (see cogeneration);

‘co-firing’ means the combustion of biomass, up to 30% of the stated electricity generation capacity of the plant in any single year, in one of the existing three peat fired power stations operational under state aid clearance.

‘cogeneration’ means the simultaneous generation in one process of thermal energy and electrical and/or mechanical energy — for the purposes of REFIT, only Cogeneration meeting the High Efficiency CHP standard will be accepted for support. “High Efficiency CHP” (HECHP) means High Efficiency Cogeneration as described in the 2004 Cogeneration Directive (2004/8/EC);
