    Accredited Certificate Providers must submit an annual statement of their energy savings project and may be required to commission independent audits.

  • Creating and selling certificates

    Accredited Certificate Providers are entitled to create certificates when they implement an energy savings project. Once created energy savings certificates can be sold.
