Green Certificates

Through its subsidiary Asja Market, Asja is active on the Italian Green Certificates Market. An ideal partner for all the companies subject to the obligations imposed by the Italian law known as Bersani Decree, Asja can offer its clients the experience it has gained in the trading sector, handling the processes to obtain the Green Certificates needed to ensure compliance with legal requirements.

Promoting the use of energy generated from renewables is one of the strategies needed to attain the goals set by the Kyoto Protocol and honour the commitments Italy has taken on with a view to environmental protection. To this end, Article 11 of the Bersani Decree, as updated and supplemented by Ministerial Decree dated 24 October 2005, provides for an incentive scheme targeted at the production of “green” energy based on a competitive market mechanism centered around Green Certificates.

Porducers and importers of power generated from conventional sources whose production exceeds in a given year the thresholds set by the relevant Authority have an obligation to send to the national energy grid, on the following year, a certain amount of energy produced from renewable sources (3.05 % for 2006 3.80% for 2007 and 4.55% for 2008). Energy producers and importers must therefore fulfill their obligations by purchasing an equivalent quantity of Green Certificates assigned to renewable energy producers according to production.

Actually, Green Certificates are bearer bonds whose final value is determined through bilateral negotiations between their owners (renewable energy producers) and the entities having an obligation to purchase them (producers or importers of energy produced from conventional sources). A Green Certificate corresponds to 1 MWh of green power produced.
