The ESB has noted in its most recent high-level design document that electricity contracted for the purposes of the RET scheme should not be treated differently to new generation coming to market after the introduction of the emissions guarantee. In other words, both should be able to be counted towards an entity's compliance with the emissions guarantee. Accordingly, if the emissions guarantee comes into force on 1 January 2020 as planned, there will be 10 years during which power generators and retailers who are also liable entities under the RET (mostly retailers) are required to comply with both schemes until the RET expires in 2030, while, significantly, generation which produces LGCs will also be able to count towards reducing a retailer’s average emissions intensity for the threshold under the NEG.
