A renewable energy credit (REC)—also sometimes referred to as a renewable energy certificate or green tag—is created for each megawatt-hour (1 MWh, or 1000 kilowatt-hours) of renewable electricity generated and delivered to the power grid.
When renewable energy is generated by wind, solar, biomass, geothermal, and certain hydropower sources, two things are created: (i) the actual electricity and (ii) the environmental benefits associated with the fact that the electricity was produced without burning fossil fuels like coal or natural gas. RECs are the way those environmental benefits or “attributes” are tracked and accounted for.
Know exactly what you’re getting.
Terrapass RECs are Green-e certified, which means they are verified through the nation’s leading independent consumer protection program for the sale of renewable energy in the retail market. You’ll receive a product content label (PCL) with your order so you know where and how each and every kilowatt hour was produced.
