How can I switch traders?

For electricity, green gas and hydrogen: 

You can make the trader switch yourself in MyVertiCer. Choose your role in the menu bar with the appropriate energy carrier. Through this page you can go to MyVertiCer.

Why should I use a trader? Can't I sell my GoOs myself?

A registered trading account with VertiCer is required to trade MoUs and COOs. You can decide which trader you choose. This does not have to be your energy supplier. We recommend that you contact a trader in advance to record possible agreements about the COOs.

However, selling your own green gas and hydrogen GoOs can be done by the producer.

My registration for my production plant is about to expire. What should I do?

For Electrical and thermal power generation plants:

You can renew your registration from 3 months prior to the date your registration expires.

You can arrange the renewal of your registration for an electric generating plant yourself online in My VertiCer. You can also find explanations on renewal in the user manual for producers in 'Downloads'. You then submit a so-called Re-request for Determination. After approval from your grid operator, you will receive a confirmation of this re-registration from VertiCer. The effective date of the reregistration corresponds to the end date of the previous registration. 

The renewal of your registration of a thermal energy production plant has not yet been digitised. You will receive an e-mail from us with a document attached approximately 3 months before your registration expires. You as the producer and your metering company must sign the document. You can then send it in PDF to [email protected]. VertiCer will then process the extension for you and you will receive a confirmation as soon as the registration has been extended.

I accidentally forgot to renew my registration for the production plant. What should I do?

Unfortunately, you have to re-register your production installation by registering your installation with VertiCer once again. The entire registration process must then be completed, including approval by the grid operator or metering company.

  • Wind
  • Sun

My biomass, biogas, green gas, hydrogen, AVI or thermal energy production plant has changed significantly. What should I do?

You must notify your metering company of these changes in good time. If necessary, the metering protocol must be adjusted accordingly. Have data changed, such as power, location address or connection (e.g. from Small Consumption to Large Consumption or Secondary Allocation Point)? Then re-register the installation.
