Summary

To be clear at the outset: There is no actual term “Delivery Location” — to designate a place whence and whither an EUA is delivered — in the Emissions Annex. But there should be, and to make things easier for you, we are going to just carry on as if there were.

The actual terms that cover this idea — yes; plural — are “Delivering Party’s Delivery Business Day Location” and/orReceiving Party’s Delivery Business Day Locationas the case may be.

From the “So, you think you have lost the will to live? Hold my beer” file, firstly who in their right mind, when form,ulating a snappy way of saying Delivery Location, comes up with two separate defined terms each of whicht is six words long?

Secondly, the defined terms are only used once each, ostensibly to “simplify” the concept of “Delivery Business Day”, which itself is barely in need of simplification, meaning as it does:

Delivery Business Day means a business day in both parties’ specified delivery location.[1]

All we are talking about here is ensuring it is a business day in the place whence and whither an EUA is delivered.
