    <paragraph num="(2)">
      <text>“Combined cycle system” means a system comprised of one or more combustion turbines, heat recovery steam generators, and steam turbines configured to improve overall efficiency of electricity generation or steam production.</text>
    </paragraph>
    <paragraph num="(3)">
      <text>“Combustion turbine” means an enclosed fossil or other fuel-fired device:</text>
      <paragraph num="(a)">
        <text>That is comprised of a compressor, a combustor, and a turbine; and</text>
      </paragraph>
      <paragraph num="(b)">
        <text>In which the flue gas resulting from the combustion of fuel in the combustor passes through the turbine, rotating the turbine.</text>

      </paragraph>
      <paragraph num="(b)">
        <text>For a new unit, the combustion of fossil fuel, alone or in combination with any other fuel, where fossil fuel is projected to comprise more than 50 percent of the annual heat input on a Btu basis during the year that the new unit begins combusting fossil fuel.</text>
