As you may be aware, Renewable Energy Certificates (REC) are provided to companies that generate power using renewable energy technologies. Renewable Energy Purchase Obligation (RPO) is a policy mechanism that mandates that a certain portion of the power requirements (of large companies, power plants, etc.) should be met using renewable energy sources. You can get more information about REC/RPO from here.
Companies can either generate renewable power by themselves or can buy from renewable power plants. If companies generate their own renewable power, they may be eligible to get preferential tariff or capital subsidy. Basically, there are many ways in which a company can comply with Renewable Purchase Obligation guidelines, and obtaining the services of a consultant with domain expertise might be helpful to decide on the best renewable energy strategy.
According to their website, GC Advisors provide consultancy for procuring Renewable Energy Certificates (for power generators), devise a suitable renewable energy sales strategy, provide renewable energy project assessment services, power resources and cost optimization services & Renewable Energy Purchase Obligation compliance services.
