Pennsylvania Tier 1 & 2 RECs
Emergent Energy is an aggregator of Pennsylvania Tier 1 and 2 Renewable Energy Credits.
Renewable Energy Sources
Tier I alternative energy sources:
- Solar photovoltaic and solar thermal energy.
- Wind power.
- Low-impact hydropower.
- Geothermal Energy.
- Biologically derived methane gas.
- Generation of electricity utilizing by-products of the pulping process and wood manufacturing process including bark, wood chips, sawdust and lignin in spent pulping liquors. In-state resources of this type are now considered Tier I.
- Biomass Energy.
- Coal mine methane.
Tier II alternative energy sources:
- Waste coal.
- Distributed generation systems.
- Demand-side management.
- Large-scale hydropower (including pumped storage).
- Municipal solid waste.
- Generation of electricity utilizing by-products of the pulping process and wood manufacturing process including bark, wood chips, sawdust and lignin in spent pulping liquors.
- Integrated combined coal gasification technology.
