When a Guarantee of Origin is created, you pay the creation fee and the transfer fee as a trader. The Guarantee of Origin is then credited to your account.

GOs are valid for one year from the production date. Please note: the end date of the production period may differ per country.
Once your installation has been approved, you will receive confirmation from VertiCer. On the same day, RVO is automatically informed.
The Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO) will start your subsidy only after your installation has been registered.
Questions about your subsidy? Please contact RVO directly.
You can check the status in the MyVertiCer portal under ‘Mijnproductie-installaties’.
Contact your grid operator or metering company.
An overview can be found under Downloads.
A metering protocol describes the production installation, energy flows, and how measurements are taken. It includes information about the location, installations, measurement accuracy, and the metering company. The protocol is valid for 5 years and must be updated when changes occur.
A metering report contains metering data and/or information about biomass streams used. It substantiates the energy produced.
If you submit your report even one day late, we are required to reduce the number of GOs by 1/365. This reduction increases for each additional day of delay. This is stipulated in the regulations of the Ministry of Climate and Green Growth.
Contact your grid operator. For thermal energy, green hydrogenand green gas, contact your metering company.
For electricity, the grid operator is responsible forsubmitting metering data to VertiCer.
For thermal energy, green hydrogen and green gas, this is your metering company.
Some installations use multiple types of fuel. Biomass percentages indicate the share of energy from each source, expressed as percentages.
You can enter the biomass percentages yourself in MyVertiCer. You can do this on the ‘Fuel percentages’ tab.
Please note the following: do not click ‘Agree’ until you have entered your biomass records correctly and in full.
If it turns out that the data has not been entered correctly or is incomplete, you can correct this yourself when submitting the annual report (by 30 April for the previous calendar year). Should you make a mistake whilst entering the data, please contact us and we will help you to correct it.
Do you produce thermal energy? If so, please ensure that, in addition to entering your fuel percentages, you also upload your monthly measurement report (in PDF format) to MyVertiCer.
GOs allow you to demonstrate the origin of energy, for example, whether it was generated from solar or wind power. This supports the energy transition.
