RECs/REBATES

 

Householders can contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions by installing solar water heaters or small scale renewable energy generators. Where these systems qualify under the Renewable Energy (Electricity) Act 2000, the system’s owner can benefit financially.
To simplify the inclusion of solar water heaters and small generation units under the Mandatory Renewable Energy Target, the number of Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) that can be claimed for eligible systems has been calculated by the Office of the Renewable Energy Regulator and are referred to as deemed amounts. Deemed Renewable Energy Certificates for both solar water heaters and small generation units may be either created and traded by the owner of the system, or assigned to a registered Agent. You may assign your right to create certificates to an Agent in return for some benefit to you, such as a rebate or price reduction. In this case, the Agent will own the certificates


What is the current value for a REC?

Current RECS value is $44.00AU including GST – please check the Apricus Australia website regularly as values are subject to change frequently.

Please visit www.orer.gov.au for information.
