What are International Renewable Energy Certificates?

International Renewable Energy Certificates (I-RECs) are tradable certificates that document renewable electricity consumption in Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Latin America.

Each I-REC represents 1 MWh of renewable generation and contains production metadata (technology type, location, timestamp) that enables environmental attribute claims, including Scope 2 emission reductions.

Soldera provides AI-enabled procurement automations that address regulatory complexity and compliance with sustainability standards.

Why do companies purchase I-RECs?

I-RECs enable credible renewable electricity claims for compliance purposes. I-RECs are used to:
Report market-based Scope 2 emissions
Possible or mandatory under reporting standards like GHG Protocol, CDP, RE100, SBTI, and more.
Satisfy investor ESG mandates
Meet institutional investor requirements and sustainability fund eligibility criteria to qualify for funding at better terms.
Meet customer demand for sustainability
Back defensible renewable electricity claims with registry-verified, audit-ready cancellations.
Fund renewable generation
Channel capital to renewable energy producers through certificate revenue streams, making further construction more economically viable.
