RE100 & Non-RE100 Asset Classification

Filter certificates by RE100 eligible certificates status to quickly identify assets that qualify for RE100 renewable energy commitments, or review non-RE100 assets separately when sourcing for other corporate sustainability goals.

Pricing Data

I-REC (EAC) Pricing Trends & Historical Market Data

Our Pricing Methodology

Every price on Hestiya Intelligence goes through the same three-step process. First, Data Ingestion: our systems pull data daily via API directly from registries and marketplaces. Second, Normalization & Cleaning: figures are standardized, outliers are flagged and reviewed, and all prices are converted to a common currency. Third, Volume-Weighted Average: we calculate the final price using a volume-weighted average EAC price calculation method, so high-volume trades carry proportionally more weight than one-off outliers.

GLOBAL REGISTRY

Explore the Global I-REC (EAC) Registry

Identify, Analyze & Procure Renewable Energy Certificates

Every listing in the I-REC (EAC) registry links back to verifiable project and registry data, covering both established markets and emerging ones. Browse renewable energy project registry records and I-REC registry data side by side to identify, analyze, and procure with confidence.

Definitions

The Global EAC Landscape

EAC is one universal concept with different regional names. Depending on where you operate, the same underlying certificate might be called I-REC, GO, REC, REGO, GEC, or YEK-G.

EAC: Energy Attribute Certificate

An EAC, or Energy Attribute Certificate, is the umbrella term for any certificate that proves one megawatt-hour of electricity came from a renewable source.

I-REC: Asia, Africa, LatAm & Middle East

I-REC certificates are the leading EAC standard in markets without their own local tracking system, covering most of Asia, Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East.

GEC: China

GEC, or Green Electricity Certificate, has been China's sole recognized renewable energy instrument since I-REC issuance stopped there in March 2025.

GO: Guarantee of Origin (Europe)

Guarantee of Origin, or GO, is the European Union's equivalent EAC standard, used to track and certify renewable electricity generation across EU member states.

YEK-G: Turkey

YEK-G is Turkey's domestic equivalent of a Guarantee of Origin certificate, traded alongside I-REC in the same market rather than replacing it.

REC: Renewable Energy Certificate (North America)

REC, or Renewable Energy Certificate, is the equivalent EAC standard used across the United States and Canada to track renewable electricity generation.

REGO: Renewable Energy Guarantees of Origin (UK)

REGO certificates are the United Kingdom's EAC standard, tracked separately from the European Union's GO system since the UK's departure from the EU.

Market Education

Are You New to the I-REC and Carbon Markets?

New to this space? Start with the three guides below to get comfortable with carbon markets explained and I-REC basics.

What are Carbon Credits?

A carbon credit represents one tonne of CO2 either avoided or removed from the atmosphere. Buying credits helps fund verified climate projects while offsetting emissions you can't yet eliminate directly.

What is an EAC and an I-REC?

An EAC certifies that one megawatt-hour of electricity came from a renewable source. An I-REC is the most widely used type of EAC outside regions with their own domestic standard.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions About I-REC (EAC) Market Intelligence

What is the difference between an EAC and an I-REC?

EAC, short for Energy Attribute Certificate, is the umbrella term covering every regional certificate type. I-REC is the specific standard used across most of Asia, Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East, the same role that GO plays in Europe, REC in North America, GEC in China, and YEK-G in Turkey.

What is Hestiya Intelligence?

Hestiya Intelligence is a global I-REC (EAC) market intelligence platform that combines live pricing, satellite project mapping, and country-level market data in a single dashboard. It's built for procurement teams, traders, ESG consultants, and researchers who need reliable renewable certificate data without stitching it together from multiple registries themselves.

What EAC or I-REC market data can I track with Hestiya Intelligence?

You can track I-REC market data tracking for live and historical prices, market trends, and technology-level breakdowns, along with EAC pricing data by country, region-to-region comparisons, and a country comparison tool for benchmarking markets against each other side by side.

How does Hestiya work out EAC or I-REC prices?

Our EAC pricing methodology runs on three steps: daily data ingestion directly from registries and marketplaces via API, normalization and cleaning to standardize currency and flag outliers, and a final volume-weighted average calculation, so pricing stays consistent and defensible across every market we track.

On Hestiya Intelligence, which countries and regions can I analyse?

Coverage spans I-REC countries covered across Asia, Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East, alongside EAC regional coverage for markets running their own standard, such as GO in Europe, REC in North America, GEC in China, and YEK-G in Turkey.

Is the same certificate used by all countries, for example, I-REC, GO, or GEC?

No. Is I-REC the same everywhere? Not quite. Different regions run different standards: I-REC across most of Asia, Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East, GO across the European Union, REC in North America, REGO in the UK, GEC in China, and YEK-G in Turkey. Hestiya Intelligence includes an in-platform toggle so you can switch between GO vs I-REC vs GEC views without leaving the dashboard.

What people can get benefit from Hestiya Intelligence?

Who benefits from EAC data? I-REC buyers, procurement teams, traders, and ESG professionals all rely on the platform daily, alongside sustainability consultants, financial institutions, and researchers who need verified market data instead of scattered registry reports.
