Commission Regulation (EU) No 601/2012 of 21 June 2012 on the monitoring and reporting of greenhouse gas emissions pursuant to Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (Text with EEA relevance) (repealed) (c. 601)

ANNEX IV U.K. Activity-specific monitoring methodologies related to installations (Article 20(2))

16. Determination of nitrous oxide (N₂O) emissions from nitric acid, adipic acid, caprolactam, glyoxal and glyoxylic acid production as listed in Annex I to Directive 2003/87/EC U.K.

C. Determination of annual CO₂ equivalent — CO_2(e) U.K.

The operator shall convert the total annual N₂O emissions from all emissions sources, measured in tonnes to three decimal places, to annual CO_2(e) in rounded tonnes, using the following formula and the GWP values in Annex VI, section 3:

CO_2(e) [t] = N₂O_annual[t] * GWP_N2O

The total annual CO_2(e) generated by all emission sources and any direct CO₂ emissions from other emission sources included under the greenhouse gas permit shall be added to the total annual CO₂ emissions generated by the installation and shall be used for reporting and surrendering allowances.

Total annual emissions of N₂O shall be reported in tonnes to three decimal places and as CO_2(e) in rounded tonnes.
