The Government is still open to considering further activities that could be eligible for industrial allocation. If your activity hasn’t been identified as potentially eligible (check the list of Specified Templates for Activities), but you think it might be, you will have to provide some preliminary evidence of your revenue and emissions.
To be eligible for industrial allocation, activities must be:
Before Applying:
Before you apply it is important to note that some activities have already been assessed. These activities are:
| Sawmilling | Production of raw coloured glass |
| Production of wool scouring | Production of agricultural lime |
| Production of aubergines | Manufacture of refractories. |
| Production of cut gerberas | Production of zinc die-casting |
| Production of fruit pulp | Production of cut cymbidium orchids |
| Production of whey protein concentrate | Production of cast iron |
| The transformation of raw milk into milk powder and other products | Production of plastic injection moulding |
| Coal mining | Production of yarn |
On the data received through this process, the above activities were estimated to be significantly below the threshold/s (emission-intensive and/or trade-exposed). In light of this, the Minister for Climate Change Issues decided not to issue a formal call for data for information relating to these activities. A new assessment can be made for the above activities if new information that would change the initial assessment is provided.
If you think your activity might be eligible, or you have new information that would change the initial assessment of the above activities, please complete the new activities form (RTF, 2.41 MB). The new activities form includes information about the activity you think might be eligible, together with your estimates of revenue and emissions associated with this activity.
