Extension of the discipline to the production of thermal and/or cooling energy from renewable sources.

For each MWh of renewable electricity fed into the grid by IGO qualified plants, the GSE (Energy Services Manager) issues a GO title. The Ministerial Decree of 14 July 2023 regulates the mechanism of guarantees of origin (GO), which provides for the issuing, recognition and cancellation of guarantees of origin to produce energy from renewable sources, biomethane and hydrogen.
