An SREC, or Solar Renewable Energy Credit, is a tradable certificate that represents the environmental benefits of generating one megawatt-hour (MWh) of solar electricity.

Any solar system owner — from homeowners to nonprofits, schools, and businesses — can sell SRECs if their system is registered in an eligible state program and they retained ownership of their SRECs.

We provide multiple options for selling your SRECs. We can fully manage your SREC account or your can sell your SRECs yourself on our automated online brokerage. Either way, you will have the benefit of transparent tracking, faster electronic payments, and lower commissions compared to many traditional brokers or utility programs.

We have automated the payment process so your payments are processed correctly and quickly.

We also make all payments via ACH via our payment provider Bill.com. There is no cost to the client for this service.

Lastly, we offer consolidated payments for the convenience of clients that manage multiple solar systems. Our payment portal allows clients to see all transactions in a central consolidated location.

If you elect to be a fully managed client, SREC Marketplace will manage everything required for your system to be assigned SRECs.

This includes:

• applying for your SREC / SREC II / TREC approval with all required agencies.

• obtaining your generation from your reporting system and uploading generation to GATS for REC assignment.

• registering and managing state payments for your system

• automatically generating payments for your assigned RECs

• As a Fully Managed client, you will be paid quarterly each Mar/Jun/Sep/Dec electronically by ACH

If you elect to be a self managed client, you will retain responsibility and control of your generation account. When your SRECs are assigned, you would enter the sale on our online SREC Brokerage and transfer your SRECs to us to complete the sale with payment issued electronically to you via ACH. Once we receive your transferred SRECs we issue payment the next business day.

Eligibility depends on state renewable portfolio standards. We currently support all SREC types in NJ (SREC, TREC and SREC II) as well as PA SREC, MD SREC and VA SRECs. We continuously update as new programs come online so if you state is not currently supported please reach out.

There are no upfront costs. We only take a small management fee if you choose our fully managed service or an even smaller transaction fee if you manage your SREC sales yourself.

For fully managed clients where SREC Marketplace manages all aspects of your SREC payments, we pay quarterly each Mar/Jun/Sep/Dec.

For self managed clients where the client manages their SREC account you are paid the next business day after you transfer your SRECs via GATS to complete your executed sale.

For both fully managed clients and self managed clients, all payments are issued via ACH and deposited to your bank account.

Each SREC Market is traded independently. Examples of SREC Markets are NJ-2026, MD-2026 and so on.

Each SREC Market is the combination of the state of generation and an energy year. The Energy Year as defined by the state or district of generation and usually is defined as the calendar year (Jan to Dec) or the fiscal year (Jun to May).

For example, in NJ and PA an Energy year is defined as the Month of Generation from Jun the prior year through May of the current year. So, NJ-2026 is defined as SRECs created in NJ and having a month of generation reported by GATS of 06/2025 through 05/2026.

If you are a Self Managed client, it is your responsibility to accurately represent the state of generation and the appropriate year that applies to your SREC when entering sales on the platform.

For fully managed SREC Marketplace clients, we sell your generated SRECs automatically into the correct market so you don’t need to worry about SREC Markets or Energy Years.

Before we can enable your account for trading privileges on SREC Marketplace, we need to verify and associate your SREC Marketplace account with an actual PJM GATS account.
