Guarantees of Origin
A Guarantee of Origin (GoO) is a certification that verifies the source of renewable energy production, and confirms its environmental attributes such as low carbon emissions or sustainable sourcing. It provides transparency and assurance to consumers regarding the origin and environmental impact of the energy they consume.

Frequently asked questions about
Renewable Obligation Certificates
Renewable Obligation Certificates, often called ROCs, are tradable certificates issued to eligible renewable electricity generators in the UK. They help electricity suppliers meet their obligations under the Renewables Obligation scheme.
ROCs are awarded to accredited renewable electricity generators for eligible output. Suppliers can then buy ROCs to meet compliance requirements under the UK Renewables Obligation.
ROCs are typically sold by renewable electricity generators and purchased by electricity suppliers or market participants acting on their behalf. Brokers can help connect both sides of the market.
ROC prices are influenced by market supply and demand, compliance deadlines, buy-out price levels, recycle values, and wider market conditions.
The value of a ROC changes over time depending on current market conditions and the relevant compliance period. For current pricing, it is best to speak to a specialist broker.
ROCs and REGOs are different certificate schemes. ROCs are linked to the Renewables Obligation, while REGOs are used to show the renewable origin of electricity.
