Carbon trading and renewable energy certificates (RECs)

 

Initiated by the Renewable Energy (Electricity) Act 2000; RECs, otherwise known as Renewable Energy Certificates are available when complete solar hot water or solar/wind power systems. RECs can be traded for cash and the prices of these certificates vary on market conditions.

 

Owners of systems can claim RECs themselves by completing the appropriate application forms or assign their right to claim RECs to an agent, such as Energy Matters.
