Demystifying Renewable Energy Attribute Certificates

RECs/EACs are documents that prove electricity was produced from renewable sources like wind, solar, or hydro power. When companies buy RECs/EACs, they demonstrate their commitment to clean energy. These certificates guarantee that an equivalent amount of renewable electricity has been generated and fed into the grid, even if their energy provider does not supply it directly. 

This approach is an important part of a Net Zero transition, reducing your Scope 2 emissions in line with mandatory legislation and voluntary reporting standards.

In this webinar, you will:

• Gain a clear understanding of the fundamentals of purchasing and utilising RECs/EACs.
• Discover how RECs/EACs align with green tariffs and their role in sustainability strategies.
• Identify the most suitable options for your organisation, whether unbundled RECs/EACs or longer-term commitments like PPAs/VPPAs.
• Learn about reporting requirements for RECs/EACs.
• Explore emerging offerings such as 24/7 reporting, emissionality and additionality-focused RECs/EACs.
