CLP residential, commercial and industrial customers are welcome to buy CLP Renewable Energy Certificates to support the local renewable energy generation as alternative ways. Each unit of electricity carried in a CLP Renewable Energy Certificate represents all the environmental attributes associated with one unit (equals to one kWh) of electricity produced by local renewable energy sources including solar power, wind power and landfill gas projects, generated or purchased (such as through Feed-in Tariff Scheme) by CLP Power. The purchaser of CLP Renewable Energy Certificates has the right to claim environmental attributes associated with the amount of electricity carried in the CLP Renewable Energy Certificates.
“Environmental Attributes” means the rights to claim all greenhouse gas and other pollutant emissions reduction benefits associated with the unit of Renewable Electricity when it was generated.
The sources of renewable energy are the renewable energy generated or purchased (such as through Feed-in Tariff Scheme) by CLP Power including solar power, wind power and landfill gas.
If you purchase a CLP Renewable Energy Certificate, it represents you are supporting local renewable energy development by purchasing environmental attributes associated with the amount of electricity generated from local renewable energy sources. Businesses may purchase the certificates to fulfil corporate social responsibility commitments.
