The European Commission does not plan changes to the regulatory framework related to the Guarantees of Origin (GO), following the initial findings of a study aimed at discovering a potential need for system improvements.The European Commission appointed LBST, Oko Institut, and Trinomics – consortium to perform an evaluation of the GO system following a related provision in Article 19 of the revised Renewable Energy Directive (RED III). Specifically, it tasked the group to provide “technical assistance to monitor functioning of the guarantees of origin system and develop options for labelling to promote new RES production”.Veyt attended the workshop on 28 April 2025, where the preliminary results of part one of the study were unveiled and summarised key findings below.
The functioning of the GO market was checked via six dimensions:
liquidity,
stability,
efficiency,
transparency,
harmonisation,
and responsiveness.
A separate workshop on the Union Green label study findings will follow in May 2025.
Veyt specialises in data, analysis, and insights for all significant low-carbon markets and renewable energy.
