Consultation description
The Renewable Energy Guarantees of Origin (REGO) scheme provides transparency to consumers about the proportion of electricity that suppliers source from renewable generation. Post the Implementation period, Ofgem continues to issue REGOs to UK generators and Guarantees of Origin from EU member states (EU GoOs) continue to be recognised by the UK.
However, since 1 January 2021, UK REGOs are no longer recognised in the EU. The purpose of this consultation is to seek the views of stakeholders on how they envisage the revocation of EU GoOs and CHP GoOs will affect Northern Ireland
