At the beginning of 2023, for the first time in Georgia, Georgian State Electrosystem started issuing certificates of origin for electricity obtained from renewable energy.
The certificate of origin is an electronic document that provides the consumer with complete information about the amount of energy produced from renewable sources. It is used both to support the development of renewable energy sources and to encourage the use of renewable energy by energy suppliers and consumers.
