  • Letter from the Minister for Environment
    Lesley Griffiths AS/MS Gweinidog yr Amgylchedd, Ynni a Materion Gwledig Minister for Environment, Energy and Rural Affairs Mick Antoniw MS Chair of the Legislation, Justice and Constitution Committee [email protected] 18 September 2020 Dear Mick, Further to my attendance at Committee on 14 September, I agreed to provide a definitive list of the installations in Wales captured by the Greenhouse Gas Emissions Trading Scheme Order 2020. I also agreed to request information from Natural Resources Wales (NRW) on how it may use authorised persons to monitor compliance on its behalf and on NRW’s position regarding what would be considered reasonable prior notice, with detail of the average time used previously. A definitive list of the installations which will be captured by the Order is attached, based on the current database of Welsh installations participating in the EU Emissions Trading System. The list details whether it is a participant in the main scheme (indicated by GHG) or one of the opt-outs and the activity or activities undertaken at the installation which requires a permit under this scheme. With regards to the use of authorised persons, NRW have responded as follows: “This power provides regulators with flexibility in terms of access to and use of specialist resources. The regulator has a statutory duty to determine emissions where an operator has failed to do so and these powers enable a regulator to appoint an agent (e.g. a verifier), perhaps with specialist process knowledge, to visit premises to gather information to calculate emissions. We envisage use of this power would occur rarely and most likely in circumstances where an operator refuses to submit emissions information”.

Companies that produce large capital products (LCP), such as rockets, satellites, or large gas turbines to generate electrical energy, tend to shy away from extending their testing and validation method above the requirements by law, mainly due to the very high costs of each additional test and the uncertain return on investment.

  • Modified UK National Implementation Measures for Phase III of the EU Emissions Trading System
    Modified UK National Implementation Measures for Phase III of the EU Emissions Trading System As submitted to the European Commission in April 2012 following the first stage of their scrutiny process This document has been issued by the Department of Energy and Climate Change, together with the Devolved Administrations for Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. April 2012 UK’s National Implementation Measures submission – April 2012 Modified UK National Implementation Measures for Phase III of the EU Emissions Trading System As submitted to the European Commission in April 2012 following the first stage of their scrutiny process On 12 December 2011, the UK submitted to the European Commission the UK’s National Implementation Measures (NIMs), containing the preliminary levels of free allocation of allowances to installations under Phase III of the EU Emissions Trading System (2013-2020), in accordance with Article 11 of the revised ETS Directive (2009/29/EC). In response to queries raised by the European Commission during the first stage of their assessment of the UK’s NIMs, the UK has made a small number of modifications to its NIMs. This includes the introduction of preliminary levels of free allocation for four additional installations and amendments to the preliminary free allocation levels of seven installations that were included in the original NIMs submission. The operators of the installations affected have been informed directly of these changes. The allocations are not final at this stage as the Commission’s NIMs scrutiny process is ongoing. Only when all installation-level allocations for an EU Member State have been approved will that Member State’s NIMs and the preliminary levels of allocation be accepted.

In the last decade environmental policy has increased the support for renewable electricity. At the same time the electricity sector was often subject of antitrust investigation because of relevant market concentration, and mar­ ket power. This dissertation looks at the renewable electricity market to analyze the effect of environmental policy on competition.

  • Bringing Together Technology Developers
    Bringing together technology developers, the supply chain, academia and the public sector to establish Wales as a global leader in sustainable marine energy generation. “By combining supportive policy with the allocation of €100.4 million of EU Structural Funds, alongside a £76 million City Deal for marine energy, Wales has created one of the most attractive global sector landscapes in the world. Diverse natural resources, array scale Demonstration zones, seabed leases and significant tidal range proposals have driven the development of this new low carbon sector in Wales. Considering our skilled maritime supply chains, world class research and port facilities alongside our new carbon reduction targets, it all adds up to make Wales a key location for marine energy development.” David Jones, Project Director, Marine Energy Wales What is Marine Energy Wales? Marine Energy Wales brings together technology developers, the supply chain, academia and the public sector to promote Wales as a global leader in sustainable marine energy generation. Through the development of the regional supply chain, Marine Energy Wales is making a significant contribution to a low carbon economy with sustainable green jobs, growth, skills and development opportunities.

  • Chapter 3: Carbon Reduction by Industry 14 – 21
    Carbon Reduction by Industry and Public Bodies in Wales 3rd report of the Sustainability Committee’s Inquiry into Carbon Reduction in Wales April 2009 Contents Page Chair’s Introduction 1 Chapter 1: Introduction 2 – 9 Chapter 2: Key Issues and Recommendations 10 – 13 Chapter 3: Carbon reduction by industry 14 – 21 Chapter 4: Carbon reduction by public bodies 22 – 26 Annex A: Summary of recommendations 27 – 29 Annex B: List of respondents to the call for written evidence 30 Annex C: List of respondents providing oral evidence 31 - 32 Annex D: Carbon reduction calculations 33 - 35 Chair’s Introduction This is our third report into carbon reduction in Wales and much has changed since we published our first report earlier in the year. The urgency of the need for action on climate change is now widely recognised and the recommendation of the UK Climate Change Committee that we need to be moving towards an 80% cut in our carbon emissions has made our inquiry and recommendations even more valid. We also face a worrying time financially with the prospect of further months of recession ahead of us. It is timely, therefore, that we should be focussing on the measures that industry and public bodies can take to reduce their carbon emissions in this report. At a time of financial hardship, sustainability issues are often sidelined as economic considerations take centre stage. I hope in this report that we are able to highlight the benefits to industry and public bodies of adopting a low carbon approach to the way in which they do business.
