Renewable Energy Certificates Aggregation and Sales Services
What is a renewable energy certificate (REC) or green-tag?
Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) or green tags are the green attributes of renewable energy. Greenhouse gases (GHG) are not emitted when electricity or heat is generated from renewable energy such as photovoltaic solar, wind, small hydro, geothermal and wave power or carbon dioxide is off-set by the renewable fuel burned such as anaerobic digester biogas, landfill gas, or biomass. One REC is generated when one kilo-watt hour (KWh) of electricity or heat is generated.
Silica Solar LLC aggregates Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) or green tags on your behalf and sells them to prospective clients at competitive rates to bring you an additional source of income. There are many small renewable power generators from PV solar power, biogas generators, small wind and hydro power generators. They are either not aware of the emerging renewable energy certificate market or generate RECs in small quantities thus making it un-economical to sell them due to higher handling and transaction cost.
