What is a Cancellation Statement?

Cancellation statements must be compiled into evidence packages to support claims: typically for emissions disclosures and for schemes that require proof of renewable consumption. They are accessible for download after EACs have been cancelled within a registry or Virtual Account. They contain beneficiary identification, and, similarly to EACs, relevant device metadata in full. To use the example of European GOs: statements reference unique certificate numbers, specific generation volumes, the domain of cancellation, facility names, the issuance date, production periods, technology classifications, and whether or not the device was in receipt of public support (whether investment support or production support).
