4. The volume of energy attributable to an energy distributor is determined by the Régie de l’énergie taking into account the information obtained from that distributor for its fiscal year preceding the fiscal year for which the annual contribution is calculated.
When an energy distributor ceases its activities, the amount of its annual contribution payable to Energy Transition Québec is adjusted to take into account the period during which the distributor was subject to payment of the contribution.
The volume of electric power attributable to an energy distributor having entered into a service agreement with the electric power distributor delegating to it the management of its programs and actions promoting energy efficiency and new energy technologies is nil.
The volume of electric power distributed by the electric power distributor to an energy distributor that has not entered into the agreement referred to in the third paragraph is not attributable to the electric power distributor. In such a case, the volume of electric power attributable to the energy distributor is determined by the Régie taking into account the information obtained from the energy distributor for the fiscal year preceding the fiscal year for which the annual contribution is calculated.
The volume of energy distributed that is attributable to a fuel distributor is converted into megajoules according to the following table:CONVERSION TABLE (in megajoules per litre) Fuel types |
Gasoline | Diesel fuel | Light heating oil | Heavy heating oil | Propane |
35.00 | 38.30 | 38.80 | 42.50 | 25.31 |
The fuel sold in Québec is presumed to be intended for consumption in Québec unless the fuel distributor shows otherwise by providing the Régie with the form “Attestation – Fuel intended for consumption outside Québec”, duly signed by the client to which the volumes of fuel were sold during the fiscal year for which the distributor is filing a statement.
The attestation form must be the form provided by the Régie as part of the form “Statement by fuel distributors” and must be used once only, for a single distributor and a single client. The distributor filing the statement cannot amend the client’s attestation without authorization from the person who signed it.
In determining the volume of energy attributable to a fuel distributor, the Régie takes into account the statements filed by the distributors pursuant to section 85.44 of the Act respecting the Régie de l’énergie (chapter R-6.01).
