1 Overview of final draft text of Renewable Energy Directive (REDII) Comparing proposals from the EU Commission, Council and Parliament as of January 17th, Includes only text elements which comprises Guarantees of Origin and Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) directly - Recitals set out the reasons for the actual article and can be helpful when it comes to interpretation - Articles refer to the updated Directive text structure - Changes compared to the Commission proposal are indicated in bold text; deletions are marked with [ ]. Recital 43 Recital 45 European Commission proposal, 30 November 2016 Guarantees of origin issued for the purpose of this Directive have the sole function of showing to a final customer that a given share or quantity of energy was produced from renewable sources. A guarantee of origin can be transferred, independently of the energy to which it relates, from one holder to another. However, with a view to ensuring that a unit of renewable energy is disclosed to a customer only once, double counting and double disclosure of guarantees of origin should be avoided. Energy from renewable sources in relation to which the accompanying guarantee of origin has been sold separately by the producer should not be disclosed or sold to the final customer as energy from renewable sources. It is important to provide information on how the supported electricity is allocated to final customers. In order to improve the quality of that information to consumers, Member States should ensure that guarantees of origin are European Parliament plenary vote, 17 January 2018 Guarantees of origin issued for the purpose of this Directive have the sole function of showing to a final customer that a given share or quantity of energy was produced from renewable sources. A guarantee of origin can be transferred, independently of the energy to which it relates, from one holder to another. However, with a view to ensuring that a unit of renewable energy is disclosed to a customer only once, double counting and double disclosure of guarantees of origin should be avoided. Energy from renewable sources in relation to which the accompanying guarantee of origin has been sold separately by the producer should not be disclosed or sold to the final customer as energy from renewable sources. It is important to distinguish between green certificates used for support schemes and guarantees of origin. (Amendment 41) It is important to provide information on how the supported electricity is allocated to final customers. In order to improve the quality of that information to consumers, Member States should ensure that guarantees of origin are Council, text of 13 December, referenced on 18 December 2017 at General approach It is important to provide information on how the supported electricity is allocated to final customers. In order to improve the quality of that information to consumers, Member States should ensure that guarantees of origin are 1

2 Recital 46 Recital 47 issued for all units of renewable energy produced. In addition, with a view to avoiding double compensation, renewable energy producers already receiving financial support should not receive guarantees of origin. However, those guarantees of origin should be used for disclosure so that final consumers can receive clear, reliable and adequate evidence on the renewable origin of the relevant units of energy. Moreover, for electricity that received support, the guarantees of origin should be auctioned to the market and the revenues should be used to reduce public subsidies for renewable energy. Directive 2012/27/EU provides for guarantees of origin for proving the origin of electricity produced from high-efficiency cogeneration plants. However, no use is specified for such guarantees of origin, so they should also be used when disclosing the use of energy from high efficiency CHP Guarantees of origin, which are currently in place for renewable electricity and renewable heating and cooling, should be extended to cover renewable gas. This would provide a consistent means of proving to final customers the origin of renewable gases such as biomethane and would facilitate greater crossborder trade in such gases. It would also enable the creation of guarantees of origin for other renewable gases such as hydrogen. issued for all units of renewable energy produced. (Amendment 42) issued for all units of renewable energy produced, except for when they decide not to issue guarantees of origin to producers who also receive financial support, to account for the market value of the guarantees of origin. In addition, with a view to avoiding double compensation, renewable energy producers already receiving financial support should [ ] have the market value of the guarantees of origin issued to them deducted in that relevant support scheme. [ ] Directive 2012/27/EU provides for guarantees of origin for proving the origin of electricity produced from high-efficiency cogeneration plants. However, no use is specified for such guarantees of origin, so their use should also be [ ] enabled when disclosing the use of energy from high efficiency CHP Guarantees of origin, which are currently in place for renewable electricity [ ], should be extended to cover renewable gas. Extending the guarantees of origin system to renewable heating and cooling and fossil fuel sources as an option should also be enabled. This would provide a consistent means of proving to final customers the origin of renewable gases such as biomethane and would facilitate greater cross-border trade in such gases. It would also enable the creation of guarantees of origin for other renewable gases such as hydrogen. 2
