It also includes loads and benefits associated with the deconstruction/demolition activities of existing assets on the site, assessed in module A5.1.

For both buildings and infrastructure assets, any benefit from these exported utilities (e.g. the avoided impact of grid electricity generation for exported electricity) is reported in D2.
