5.2. The European Union is grown in areas where the typical greenhouse gas emissions from cultivation of agricultural raw materials, could be lower than emissions referred to in annex 2 of the rules, or equal to them;
5.3 waste or residue is not farming, aquaculture and the fisheries balance.
6. Biofuels and organic liquid fuels not covered by this annex 5.1, 5.2 and 5.3, using actual production values.
7. paragraph 4 of this annex, of the raw materials referred to in the mining or farming emissions calculation shall take into account the greenhouse gas CO2, N2O and CH4. To calculate the CO2 equivalent gases listed the following coefficients: 7.1. CO2:1;
7.2. N2o: 296;
7.3. CH4:23.8. extraction or cultivation of raw materials (eec) include emissions from the extraction or cultivation process emissions, raw materials, waste collection and leakage of emissions, as well as the acquisition or production of chemical substances or products for the production of emissions. The cultivation of raw materials accumulated CO2 shall not be taken into account.
9. The actual value of the site growing emissions forecasting can use average values determined from calculations of geographical areas, which are lower than the reference value used for calculation of the area.
III. Annual emissions that result from land use changes affect the change in carbon concentration 10. Land use changes affect ongoing carbon concentration-the annual emissions (el) calculated the total emissions equally dividing the 20-year period. These emissions are calculated using the following formula: el = (CSR – CSA) x 3.664 × 1/20 × 1/P-eB, which el-agricultural land-use changes affect ongoing carbon concentration in annual emissions (expressed as mass of CO2 equivalent per unit biofuel energy);
CSR-with the reference land use-related carbon concentration in one area unit (expressed as mass of carbon per unit area, including soil and vegetation). The reference land use shall be the land use in either January 2008 or 20 years before the raw material extraction (using the date value that is later);
CS-with the actual land use-related carbon concentration in one area unit (expressed as mass of carbon per unit area, including soil and vegetation). If the carbon dioxide concentration accumulates in the period of more than one year, CSA assigned values calculated by the carbon dioxide concentration in one area unit after 20 years or so when the harvest of ripe (depending on which condition the implementation of earlier);
P-crop production (biofuels, or other biological energy of heating oil a year per unit of area);
EB-29 gCO2eq/MJ premiums under paragraph 11 of this annex shall be granted for biofuels or other biological liquid fuel produced from biomass, which restored degraded land.
11. Bonus/MJ grant, gCO2eq 29 if there is evidence that the land in question meets both of the following conditions: 11.1. January 2008 it has not been used for agricultural or any other activities;
11.2. it fit one of the following categories: 11.2.1. severely degraded land, including the land that formerly used in agriculture;
11.2.2. heavily contaminated land.

12. This annex 11.2. bonuses referred to apply to 10-year period from the date of the land into agricultural land, unless the soil has provided a regular increase in the amount of carbon as well as 11.2.1. this annex the land referred to in subparagraph ensure erosion, but with regard to this annex referred to in paragraph 11.2.2. low-pollution reduction.
13. This annex 11.2. the categories referred to are defined as follows: 13.1. severely depleted land-land that has long been on either sāļain or which are particularly small and organic matter that are powerful erodible;
13.2. the heavily polluted land-land soil pollution is not suitable for food or feed production.
14. The European Commission may take a decision on whether the land is included in any national or regional reconstruction programme to improve the badly depleted or contaminated land, meets the criteria referred to in paragraph 11.
IV. Processing emissions processing emissions 15. the (EPA) include process emissions, waste and leakage of emissions and chemical substances used in the processing or production of emissions.
16. Calculation of the fuel manufacturing plant outside of the generated electricity consumption, assuming that these electricity and energy greenhouse gas emissions intensity is equal to the average electricity emission and energy intensity in the region. In exceptional cases, when the power plant is not connected to the mains, the power plant generated electricity producers for calculation of average can be used separate power plants generate electricity.
17. the rules referred to in annex 4 nonaggregated permanent emission values can be accepted for processing if the surplus electricity is zero.
V. transport and trade emissions 18. Transport and trade emissions (ETDs) include raw materials and semi-finished products for transport and storage of emissions and finished product storage and trading of emissions. This paragraph shall not apply to emissions resulting from transportation and distribution and which must be taken into account in accordance with this annex, paragraphs 9 and 10.
19. The calculation may take 5 of the provisions referred to in annex summarized ongoing emission values for transport and trade.
Vi. use of fuel emissions, fuel use 20 emissions (eu) purposes, assume that the biofuel or bio liquid fuels use emission is zero.
VII. Carbon capture and geological storage of emissions savings generated 21. Carbon capture and geological storage of the resulting emission reductions (ecc), which is not taken into account in calculating PE, is emissions avoided, and separating the CO2 emitted, and is directly related to the procurement of fuel, transportation, processing and marketing.
VIII. Carbon capture and emissions savings by replacing 22. Carbon capture and replace the generated emissions savings (eccr) is to prevent the emission of CO2, which detect carbon energy is biomass, and replacing the CO2 resulting from fossil fuels and used komercprodukto and services.
IX. Cogeneration surplus electricity generated emission savings emission savings of 23 of the cogeneration power plant in electricity surplus produced (EEE) account in respect of any fuel production system-generated electricity surplus, which use the principle of cogeneration.
24. Savings shall not be taken into account if the fuel used for the cogeneration is a byproduct, not the other crop residues.
25. The calculation of electricity surplus assumes that of order the smallest appliance that can generate fuel for heat production.
26. Assumes that with the surplus of electricity-related GHG emissions savings equal to the amount of greenhouse gases that generate the equivalent amount of electricity power station issued that uses the same fuel as the cogeneration unit.
27. where a fuel production process produces both the fuel for which emissions are calculated and one or more other products (by-products), then the fuel or its intermediate product and by-product emissions of greenhouse gases in proportion to their energy content (if not electricity, by-product being down less in energy content).
28. in relation to biofuels and organic liquid fuels (with the exception of crop residues, including straw, Marc, husks, cobs and nut shells) needs this calculation takes into account all the by-products (including electricity), which does not apply to this Annex 23, 24 and 25. For the purposes of this calculation assumes that negative energy the energy content of by-products is equal to zero. Assumes that the waste, crop residues (including straw, Marc, corn husk, corn cob and nut shell) and processing residues (including jēlglicerīn (refined glycerine)) life-cycle greenhouse gas emissions up to the collection it is equal to zero.
