The Renewable Energy Certificate (REC) System is composed of policies, supply chain manufacturers, renewable energy advocacy organizations, RECs, green labels and the Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) rating.
The Renewable Energy Certificate (REC) or Energy Attribute Certificate (EAC) is a tracking tool acting as a proof of green power generation or consumption, with each certificate representing 1 MWh of green electricity.
