I.e. no energy from the new PV may be directly sold to the PML market (under the Small Producer scheme, the plant sells its energy at a discounted market price CTCP / PML). Energy trading with mixed revenue: If the overall generation of the existing PV plant and the new PV plant is below 30 MW, this energy is directly sold to the PML market.
