: Example change in the algorithm for 1B activities – Current Regulations algorithm - Schedule 1B Proposed algorithm - Part 1B of Specifications Changes in VEEC creation for water heating activities Table 6 shows example water heating activities and the difference between the current VEEC creation and proposed VEEC creation following the proposed changes. Please note that these examples are indicative only and VEEC creation is subject to a range of influences like system size, regional factors and product efficiency.

Not all activities require decommissioning of the baseline product. Revised space heating and cooling activities The department proposes to divide space heating and cooling activities by the type of upgrade product, with each proposed activity also including several decommissioning scenarios. Combining the activities in this way will allow greater flexibility between the baseline and upgrade scenarios. It is also proposed to change the amount of GHG reduction for activities to account for: an improvement in the performance of the Victorian housing stock revised heating loads for the Victorian housing stock other variables, including the assumed system size and usage
