What rules govern the maximum demand the offtaker states in their CRESA and will this be in MW (vs MWh)? Will this be the same as CGPP where the offtaker’s ability to contract is capped by their max demand in MW?

Under the Clause 6.9 of the CRESS Guidelines, a Green Consumer is allowed to source green electricity from more than one (1) RED up to its maximum energy as declared in the CRESA with the EUC. In the CRESA, the maximum energy declared (MWh) will be used as per Clause 6.9 instead of the maximum demand declared (MW). For CGPP, the GC's ability to contract is capped by its maximum demand in MW.

With respect to the classification of a new Green Consumer, we are enquiring on behalf of a potential data centre off-taker, with an ESA for a 450 MVA connection with TNB. The data centre site has already energised at a very minimal power usage for testing and commissioning in preparation for their client in Q1 and Q2 next year. Can they still be considered as a new Green Consumer under CRESS?

Based on the following situation, is the customer allowed to participate in CRESS for Factory 1 since it will be energised in the future?
