Using the standard heat metering process, but certain deductions may be required.

Chapter 7 of the government’s RHI announcement says

Metering of biogas and biomethane injection to the gas network

In addition to the relevant metering requirements, where plants generate heat from biogas, participants will have to additionally meter:

• any heat directed from the combuster to the biogas plant;
• any heat to the biogas plant derived from any source other than the biogas itself.

These measurements will be deducted from the meter reading on which RHI support is claimed. Both the cumulative meter reading and the supporting calculations must be provided to Ofgem.
