EL-Certificates

El-Certificates are a financial support scheme to stimulate development of new electricity production from renewable sources in Norway and Sweden.

The system is a quota obligation meaning that electricity suppliers must pay a financial support to new production relatively to their electricity sales to end-consumers. Support payment is documented by cancelling electricity certificates, support certificates issued to new electricity production and sold by the producer eligible for support.

It is a free market for the support certificates to stimulate development of the most cost effective production.

ECOHZ offers administrative and sales services to owners of new power plants and we offer administrative and buying services to electricity suppliers obliged to fulfill their annual support quota.

ECOHZ offers short and long term partnerships to give cost effective solutions for administration and trading of El-certificates.
