In addition, the site lists marketers of Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs)(also known as green tags or tradable renewable certificates),
which represent the environmental attributes of the power produced from
a renewable energy project. Whether or not consumers have access to
green power through their local utility or a competitive electricity
marketer, consumers can purchase RECs without having to switch
electricity suppliers.
