What Are Renewable Energy Credits (RECs)?

A Renewable Energy Credit (REC) represents proof that one megawatt-hour (MWh) of electricity was generated from a renewable energy source such as wind, solar, or hydro. When you buy a REC, you are supporting clean energy production and reducing reliance on fossil fuels.

• They provide a measurable way to track and claim the use of renewable energy.
• They help organizations meet sustainability goals and regulatory requirements.
• They allow businesses and communities to demonstrate a real commitment to reducing carbon emissions.

Not all RECs are equal. Without proper oversight, credits can be misused, duplicated, or inaccurately reported. This undermines trust in the renewable energy market.

Viro Trade ensures every REC we verify is backed by reliable data and transparent reporting. Our process includes:

• Independent Verification – confirming REC validity.
• Geospatial & Data Validation – matching credits to real generation sources.
• Compliance Assurance – ensuring alignment with regional standards and registries.
