Tradable Renewable Energy Certificate (TRC) Handbook

  • "Best Practices" from domestic and international experience with TRCs to date, covering issues such as property rights, net-metering, interaction with RPS and green pricing, rate-setting, banking and retiring, and other related topics
  • Guidelines for the development of certificate accounting systems
  • Guidance questions to help regulators with salient issues that are sensitive to local conditions
  • A list of "Basic Principles" in TRC marketing and rule-making
