Overview

CaseMark's REC Purchase Agreement skill drafts comprehensive, enforceable Renewable Energy Credit Purchase Agreements tailored to US compliance and voluntary markets. The AI generates detailed provisions covering product specifications, tracking system protocols, RPS compliance, Green-e certification, title transfer, and regulatory change risk allocation. Whether you're structuring a single-vintage solar REC transaction or a multi-year wind credit supply agreement, this skill produces a complete, balanced contract ready for review.

Drafting REC Purchase Agreements is uniquely complex, requiring expertise across environmental commodity markets, state-specific RPS programs, multiple tracking system protocols, and evolving certification standards. Attorneys and energy professionals often spend hours researching jurisdiction-specific requirements and manually assembling provisions that address vintage eligibility, geographic boundaries, delivery commitments, and regulatory change risk—all while balancing the competing interests of buyers and sellers.

CaseMark's AI-powered REC Purchase Agreement skill eliminates this complexity by generating a complete, enforceable agreement tailored to your specific transaction parameters. Simply provide your commercial terms, facility details, and tracking system information, and CaseMark produces a comprehensive draft with properly structured product specifications, compliance provisions, and risk allocation clauses—ready for final review and execution.

Questions

Which tracking systems does the REC Purchase Agreement cover?

CaseMark supports all major US REC tracking systems including WREGIS, PJM-GATS, M-RETS, NC-RETS, and NEPOOL-GIS. The generated agreement includes jurisdiction-specific transfer protocols and account requirements for your selected system.

Can it handle both compliance and voluntary REC markets?

Yes. CaseMark drafts agreements for RPS compliance transactions, voluntary purchases (including Green-e certified RECs), and speculative resale arrangements. The AI tailors certification maintenance obligations, vintage requirements, and geographic eligibility based on your transaction type.

Does the agreement address regulatory change risk?

Absolutely. CaseMark includes regulatory change provisions that allocate risk between buyer and seller when RPS programs, eligible technology definitions, or tracking system rules change during the contract term. These clauses are critical for multi-year REC transactions.

How does CaseMark handle bundled vs. unbundled RECs?

CaseMark explicitly addresses whether RECs are bundled with underlying energy or sold as unbundled environmental attributes. The agreement clearly defines which environmental claims transfer to the buyer and confirms the seller retains no residual claims post-sale.

Can I customize the delivery structure and quantity commitments?

Yes. CaseMark supports both firm delivery commitments (where the seller must procure replacement RECs if short) and output-based structures (where the buyer accepts volume risk). You can specify fixed MWh quantities or periodic delivery schedules across monthly, quarterly, or annual intervals.

Is the generated agreement enforceable across different US jurisdictions?

CaseMark generates agreements designed for US jurisdictions with provisions tailored to specific state RPS programs and regional tracking systems. However, we recommend having the final agreement reviewed by qualified legal counsel familiar with your specific jurisdiction's requirements.
