Your clean energy, certified and traded

Renewable energy certificates represent the environmental attribute of clean generation, separate from the electricity itself, and they trade in active Australian markets. Large-scale Generation Certificates, or LGCs, are created by accredited power stations and large commercial systems for each megawatt-hour generated. Small-scale Technology Certificates, or STCs, are produced upfront by smaller solar, heat pump and storage installations. NexusCore acts as your broker across both, managing accreditation, registration, creation and the sale or strategic retirement of certificates so the environmental value of your investment is realised rather than left on the table.

For generators, certificates are a recurring revenue stream that improves project economics and shortens payback. For energy buyers, sourcing and retiring certificates is how genuine renewable claims are substantiated, underpinning credible carbon and renewable-energy commitments. We sit between those needs, matching supply and demand and timing transactions to market conditions so both sides capture value.

LGCs, STCs and how they differ

STCs are calculated and created at installation, providing an upfront benefit that effectively discounts smaller systems. LGCs accrue over time as accredited systems generate, creating an ongoing income stream tied to actual output. The two markets behave differently, with distinct pricing dynamics and registration processes, and capturing full value means understanding both. We handle the accreditation and reporting each pathway demands.

• Accredit eligible systems for certificate creation
• Register and create LGCs against metered generation
• Calculate and assign STCs at installation
• Trade certificates to capture favourable market pricing
• Source and retire certificates for verified offset claims

Timing the market

Certificate prices move with policy, demand and supply, and selling at the right moment materially affects returns. As an active broker, NexusCore monitors these markets and advises when to sell, hold or contract forward. For buyers, we secure certificates that meet your reporting standards at competitive prices, ensuring the offsets you retire are genuine and traceable.

Compliance and reporting

Creating and trading certificates carries registry obligations and audit expectations. We manage the registry accounts, generation reporting and documentation so your certificates are valid, your transactions are clean, and your sustainability claims withstand scrutiny.
