What is a Renewable Energy Certificate?

Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) make it possible for anyone to support clean energy and match their electricity use with renewable generation — without installing equipment or changing utility providers.

When wind or solar projects generate electricity, a REC is created alongside that power. By purchasing and retiring RECs, you ensure that renewable energy is added to the grid on your behalf and that its environmental benefits are claimed only once.

PowerMarket develops custom REC portfolios based on your electricity usage, sources certificates from renewable energy projects across the United States, and retires them in a public registry on your behalf. Each REC carries a unique serial number, creating a permanent, verifiable link between your participation and renewable energy generation.

How It Works

From electricity use to verified clean energy in four steps.

1

Electricity has a carbon footprint

Every home and business draws electricity from a grid that still relies heavily on fossil fuels. This graph reflects the energy mix in the U.S.

2

Clean energy is generated

Wind and solar farms generate renewable electricity. For every 1,000 kilowatt-hours (kWh) produced, one Renewable Energy Certificate (REC) is issued as proof that clean energy was added to the grid.

The energy is matched to your usage

RECs based on your estimated electricity usage are retired in a public registry — a permanent, verifiable record that clean energy was generated on your behalf.

Why PowerMarket

Every REC portfolio is custom-built to your electricity use, Green-e® certified, and permanently retired in a national public registry so your record is traceable and yours alone. Your impact dashboard has everything you need for reporting and disclosure, built in. And unlike other REC providers, we can integrate community solar directly into the same platform, so you can lower your electricity bill by 10-15% while making your electricity use count toward renewable energy impact.

Your clean energy impact starts here.
