Overview GoO’s
According to the EU guideline 2009/28/EC, all European Union member states are required to establish a national registry for Guarantees of Origin (GoOs) for electricity from renewable energy sources.
GoOs are certificates that prove that one MWh of electricity was produced using renewable energy sources. GoOs are exclusively issued for disclosure and transparency purposes.
