I-REC for Hydrogen Code

The I-REC Standard Foundation (I-REC Standard) and Avance Labs have signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) for the development and eventual Accreditation of a Product Code for renewable and low-carbon hydrogen (the “Hydrogen Product Code” or “I-REC(H) Product Code”).

Hydrogen is expected to complement renewable electricity and play an important, if not a fundamental role, in the world’s transition towards a cleaner and more secure energy future. With the use and application of hydrogen being scaled up, hydrogen investments around the world will see a significant and steady increase.

The development of a Hydrogen Product Code will ensure consumers can mitigate emissions while providing a revenue stream for Hydrogen activity. Accreditation of this Product Code, with Avance acting as the Code Manager, by the I-REC Standard guarantees that all stakeholders can be assured of a robust and reliable certification system to enable a net-zero emissions future.
