VEU specifications
The Victorian Energy Efficiency Target Regulations 2018 commenced on 10 December 2018 and provided for deemed activities in the VEU program.
The VEU specifications set out:
- how prescribed activities under regulation 10 of the Regulations can be carried out in a manner that achieves additional abatement, thereby making them eligible for incentives
- how to determine the amount of carbon dioxide equivalent (in tonnes) of greenhouse gas emissions that are reduced by carrying out an activity prescribed in the Regulations
- any other matters left to it by the Regulations.
The guidelines for updating the Victorian Energy Upgrades Specifications – Version 1.0 outline the process followed when updating or changing the Specifications.
