Renewable energy and storage deserves an expert voice.

A Nigerian company, EF Market Solutions Nigeria Limited, was accredited by the I-TRACK Foundation to issue International Renewable Energy Certificates (I-REC) for Lagos State. The accreditation shifts issuance from a UK firm to a local issuer, and the Lagos Carbon Initiative will initially focus on solar projects, enabling registration and verification of eligible solar facilities.

Accreditation of a local I-REC issuer could enable Lagos solar owners to access international certificate markets and institutionalize verification processes.
