About the document

Generators of renewable electricity must be registered under the Act and have their power stations accredited by the Regulator before they can create RECs. The accreditation process will establish if the power station is eligibility to create RECs under the measure and, if applicable, establish a renewable energy baseline for each eligible power station. A power station must be accredited under the measure and generate renewable energy above its baseline before being eligible to create RECs.
