About the document

Under the Renewable Energy (Electricity) Bill 2000, the renewables component of co-firing an eligible renewable energy source with fossil fuels will be eligible to receive renewable energy certificates (RECs).

This short report sets out a methodology to calculate electrical output (MWh) from renewable fuels when co-fired with coal. The objective is to develop a formula/formulae/methodology that a Generator can easily apply to biomass co-firing situations to calculate the number of RECs that may accrue to the Generator.
