How does MyVertiCer work?

You can find the user guides for MyVertiCer on the Downloads page of our website. 

For which energy sources can I receive Guarantees of Origin (GOs)?

You can request Guarantees of Origin for fossil electricity and renewable electricity, green gas, green hydrogen, and renewable thermal energy. 

Why would I want to receive GOs as a producer?

Users of GOs can use your certificates to prove that they are actually consuming renewable energy. 

Additionally, you may need GOs to qualify for subsidies or to comply with other national obligations (such as Emission Reduction Units (ERUs), formerly Renewable Fuel Units for transport). For more information about these schemes, please refer to the Dutch Emissions Authority (NEa).
