Recital 16
(16) Consequently, full auctioning should be the rule from 2013 onwards for the power sector, taking into account their ability to pass on the increased cost of CO2, and n. No free allocation should be given for carbon capture and storage as the incentive for thisto installations for the capture, pipelines for the transport or sites for the storage of CO2 emitted as a consequence of their activities, as the incentive for capturing and storing CO2 arises from allowances not being requirin need tof being surrendered in respect of emissions which are stored and otherwise would have been emitted. Electricity generators may receive free allowances for heat produced through high efficiency cogeneration as defined by Directive 2004/8/EC in the event that such heat produced by installations in other sectors were to be given free allocations, in order to avoid distortions of competition.

Free allocation mayshall be given to electricity generators in respect of the production of heatthe production of heat that is supplied to industries and other consumers through high efficiency cogeneration as defined by Directive 2004/8/EC for economically justifiable demand to ensure equal treatment with regard to other producers of heat. In each year subsequent to 2013, the total allocation to such installations in respect of the production of that heat shall be adjusted by the linear factor referred to in Article 9.
