For the purposes of the Act respecting the Régie de l’énergie (
chapter R‑6.01
) and this Regulation, natural gas is from renewable sources if it is produced
(
1
)
from non-fossil organic materials degraded by means of biological processes, in particular by anaerobic digestion, or by means of thermochemical processes, in particular by gasification;
(
2
)
from hydrogen produced in accordance with the second paragraph and from non-fossil carbon monoxide or carbon dioxide.
Another substance added to natural gas is from renewable sources if it is hydrogen that is produced
(
1
)
from non-fossil organic materials degraded by means of thermochemical processes, in particular by gasification;
(
2
)
by the electrolysis of water using electricity that comes exclusively from sources of renewable energy; or
(
3
)
during an industrial process, the purpose of which is not to obtain the hydrogen and that is powered by energy that comes exclusively from renewable sources.

Natural gas distributors must deliver annually, for final consumption in the territory for which the distributor obtained exclusive distribution rights, a quantity of gas from renewable sources equal to or greater than the result of the following formula:
T
×
(LR
A
3 + LR

In the formula provided for in the first paragraph,
(
1
)
the variable “T” represents
(
a
)
a rate of 0.01 as of the distributor’s rate year beginning in 2020;
(
b
)
a rate of 0.02 as of the distributor’s rate year beginning in 2023;
(
c
)
a rate of 0.05 as of the distributor’s rate year beginning in 2025;
(
d
)
a rate of 0.07 as of the distributor’s rate year beginning in 2028; and
(
e
)
a rate of 0.1 as of the distributor’s rate year beginning in 2030.
(
2
)
the variable “LRA3” represents the total of the distributor’s actual natural gas deliveries to the major enterprise market and the small and medium flow market for the third rate year preceding the current year;
(
3
)
the variable “LRA2” represents the total of the distributor’s actual natural gas deliveries to the major enterprise market and the small and medium flow market for the second rate year preceding the current year;
(
4
)
the variable “LPA1” represents the total of the distributor’s estimated deliveries to the major enterprise market and the small and medium flow market for the rate year preceding the current year.
The result of the formula and the variables described in subparagraphs 2 to 4 of the second paragraph are in million cubic metres (Mm
3
).
Where the gas from renewable sources delivered by a distributor is hydrogen produced in accordance with the second paragraph of section 0.1, only 33 1/3% of that hydrogen may be computed in the calculation of total deliveries represented by the variables LRA3, LRA2 and LPA1, and in the calculation of the quantity of gas from renewable sources that the distributor delivers to meet its requirement provided for in this section.
