What does VertiCer do?
VertiCer is the institution in the Netherlands that issues Guarantees of Origin (GvO) and certificate of origin (CvO) for all sustainable energy carriers. A GvO is the only proof that energy has been generated in a sustainable way.
A CvO is the only proof that electricity was generated from fossil sources. Both GvOs and CvOs can be traded. VertiCer is the central point for all matters relating to this certification.

Frequently asked questions
Have you registered your production plant? You can find the status of your production installation in MyVertiCer below 'Mijn productie installaties'. Under the overview you can find the explanation of the status.
Click here to go to MyVertiCer.
Due to the transition to our new portal in October 2023, all registrations that had a valid status on 1-1-2022 and/or pending applications, where the registration period also exceeds the date 1-1-2022, have been transferred to the new portal. This is the reason why you may not see all historical data of your registrations in the new portal.
To give you the opportunity to still view the data from before 1-1-2022, you can consult it in our 'old' portal.
Consult history (Electricity and/or Thermal production installations):
You need to re-register your production plant via MyVertiCer. Choose your role in the menu to go to MyVertiCer and register your production installation.
This may have the following causes:
- No (or incorrect) measurements been sent in from your grid operator. In this case, contact your grid operator. The grid operator is responsible for transmitting the measurements to VertiCer.
- The registration of your installation has expired. Only ifor valid registrations the measurements will be forwarded to RVO. According to legislation and regulations, the registration of a production installation is valid for 5 years. For a production installation with a capacity of less than 15 KW, a registration does not expire.
If your installation no longer has a valid registration, you must re-register your production installation via MyVertiCer. To do so, select your role on our website in the menu bar (via For private customers and/or For business) and click on the yellow button ‘Register account or production installation’ to go to MyVertiCer and re-register your production system. - The GoO trader linked to the registration of your installation is no longer registered with us. As a result, metering values and/or GoOs cannot be fully processed, which means that the data cannot (yet) be forwarded to RVO either.
Because designating a (valid) trader is mandatory, it is important to choose another trader, from the Traders Overview, who will receive your GoOs from now on. You can submit this change digitally via our website (under Actions in MyVertiCer: ‘I want to submit a change’).
