It is important to keep your details up to date in the REC Registry to ensure your transactions are processed efficiently and keep you updated about your obligations under the Renewable Energy Target.
There has been increased activity in the REC Registry in recent weeks, including buying and selling small-scale technology certificates (STCs) through the clearing house. Outdated details have caused delays in processing some of these purchases. To ensure smooth processing of future purchases it is important that you update your details before completing any transactions.
