    Specific energy consumption (See rule 2(I))

    (a)

    The specific energy consumption (SEC) gives the indication of efficient utilisation of different

    sources of energy in a plant operational boundary t o produce one unit of product, which is defined

    as the ratio of total energy input t o plant boundary and t he quantity of products produced and

    specific energy consumpt ion of an industry shall be calculated based on Gate-to-Gate concept w ith

    the following formula:-

    Specific Energy Consumpt ion =

    Net energy input into the designated consumers' boundary

    Total quantity of output exported from the designated consumers' boundary

    and expressed in terms of the metric ton of oil equivalent (toe)/per unit of product;

    Note: value to be rounded t o three decimal places.
