In a webinar on September 30, 2014, David Farnsworth, RAP senior associate, and Robin Quarrier, chief counsel at the Center for Resource Solutions, explained how existing renewable energy certificate (REC) tracking systems can be used as an integral part of state compliance with the EPA’s Clean Power Plan. These REC tracking systems, together with state policies designed to increase the production and use of renewable electricity, will be critical to states looking to use renewable energy like wind and solar to reduce the carbon intensity of their power sector.
