As the operator of a combustion plant commissioned before 20 December 2018 (medium-sized combustion plant, gas turbine and internal combustion engine plant), you were obliged to notify the competent authority by 1 December 2023.

• Thermal input of the combustion plant (in megawatts);
• Type of firing plant (diesel engine plant, gas turbine, dual-fuel engine plant, other engine plant, other firing plant);
• Type of fuel used and respective share of total energy input;
• Date of commissioning of the combustion plant;
• the NACE code (classification of economic activities) to which the other activity is to be assigned:
• expected number of annual operating hours of the combustion plant and average operating load;
• if a scheme for installations with few operating hours is used: a declaration signed by the operator stating that the combustion plant will not be in operation for more than the number of hours specified in those paragraphs;
• if an emergency operation scheme is used: a declaration signed by the operator stating that the combustion plant will only operate in an emergency;
• Name and registered office of the operator and location of the installation with address;
• Geo-coordinates of the chimney and height above ground.

The notification obligation applies to

1. combustion plants subject to authorisation and combustion plants not subject to authorisation (medium-sized combustion plants, gas turbine and internal combustion engine plants) with a rated thermal input of at least 1 megawatt and less than 50 megawatts, regardless of which fuels or which types of fuel are used;
2. combustion plants subject to authorisation (medium-sized combustion plants, gas turbine and internal combustion engine plants) with a rated thermal input of less than 1 megawatt, irrespective of the fuels or types of fuels used; and
3. joint combustion plants pursuant to § 4 of the 44th BImSchV with a rated thermal input of at least 1 megawatt each, regardless of which fuels or which types of fuels are used, unless this combination forms a combustion plant with a rated thermal input of 50 megawatts or more, which falls under the scope of the Ordinance on Large Combustion Plants, Gas Turbine and Internal Combustion Engine Plants - 13th BImSchV.

The notification must contain the information specified in Annex 1 of the 44th BImSchV.

no

The notification must be submitted electronically to the competent authority.

The authority checks the notification formally and for completeness.
