When a renewable energy facility operates, it creates electricity that is delivered into a network of transmission wires, often referred to as the power grid. The power grid is segmented into regional power pools, not all of which are interconnected. There are also regulated power markets and deregulated power markets. To assist in facilitating the sale of renewable electricity nationally, a system was established that separates renewable electricity generation into two parts: the electricity or electrical energy produced by a renewable generator and the renewable “attributes” of that generation. The renewable attributes or “green” attributes can be sold separately as renewable energy credits or certificates. Only one certificate may be issued for each unit of renewable electricity produced.

This product is made up of renewable energy certificates. With the purchase of renewable certificates, you are buying the renewable attributes (i.e. environmental benefits) of a specific amount and type of renewable energy generation. You will continue to receive a separate electricity bill from your utility for local electricity service. Your purchase of renewable certificates helps offset or reduce the need conventional electricity generation in the region or country where the renewable generator is located and producing power. Your purchase of clean and renewable energy also helps to build a market for renewable electricity and has other local as well as global environmental benefits such as reduced air pollution.
