4.2 High Efficiency Cogeneration
The support scheme on the promotion of high efficiency cogeneration based on the useful heat demand.
6. To whom and how the subsidy is provided
Annually ANRE nominates the electricity and heat cogeneration benefiting from the support scheme.
The bonuses are calculated for three types of fuels used for electricity and heat cogeneration, solid fuel, gas supplied through the transport network and gas supplied through the distribution network, as difference between the total production costs of an equivalent cogeneration power plant and the income it can generate by using the electric energy market price, respectively the thermal energy unitary cost for an equivalent thermal power plant, difference related to the electric energy delivered by the cogeneration power plant taken into consideration.
The funds required in order to grant the state aid are extra budgetary.
The funds required in order to grant the state aid are obtained through the monthly collection of a cogeneration contribution paid by all the electric energy consumers and by the suppliers that export electric energy; the collected funds are transferred by the electric energy suppliers to the support state aid scheme administrator, CN Transelectrica SA.
