M-RETS is a non-profit, mission-driven organization whose environmental attribute tracking platform facilitates the drive toward economy-wide decarbonization.  M-RETS facilitates REC markets by issuing a unique, traceable digital certificate (i.e., one REC) for every megawatt hour (“MWh”) of verified renewable energy recorded on the platform. M-RETS facilitates RTC markets by issuing a unique, traceable digital certificate (i.e., one RTC) for every dekatherm (“dth”) of verified renewable energy recorded on the platform. The M-RETS platform provides more than just the ability to track volumes of biomethane. M-RETS provides for—but does not require—the ability to track carbon pathways and carbon intensity (CI) values with comprehensive documentation as part of each certificate. Once issued, M-RETS users can choose to transfer (buy/sell), retire, import, or export RECs or RTCs.

M-RETS recently facilitated the first ever hourly REC issuance and retirement in collaboration with Google. This work was the focus of a Google Cloud Blog titled T-EACS Offer a New Approach to Certifying Clean Energy. The M-RETS Renewable Energy Certificate (“REC”) and Renewable Thermal Certificate (“RTC”) registries provide key data that serve new and existing voluntary and compliance markets across North America.
