Renewable Energy Digit System is a new tracking system will make sure that green electricity is accepted locally.
Volterres came up with a new way to track energy called the Renewable Energy Digit System ( R.E.D.S). R.E.D.S makes it possible to certify where the electricity came from and what kind it was. This gives consumers the background information they need to choose which renewable power plants will be their main source of electricity. By putting independent renewable energy producers in the spotlight, this innovative solution strengthens the relationship between electricity producers and electricity users. It also encourages local governments and independent energy producers to start new renewable energy projects in their area.
