CerQlar is a cloud-based environmental commodities management platform helping utilities, renewable energy producers, energy traders, and large corporate energy buyers manage energy attribute certificates (EACs), including Guarantees of Origin, REGOs, RECs, and I-RECs. The platform centralizes certificate inventories, trading contracts, registry transactions, and delivery obligations, replacing fragmented spreadsheets and manual processes. Its primary value lies in helping organizations manage increasingly complex certificate portfolios, reduce settlement errors, and maintain accurate records of renewable energy transactions.

Core Features

CerQlar connects certificate registries, trading records, and portfolio data within a single system. Its workflows are designed around the lifecycle of energy attribute certificates, from acquisition and allocation to transfer, cancellation, and reporting. Its main features include:

  • Certificate Inventory Management: Consolidates EAC inventories, counterparty contracts, generation assets, and transaction records. Supports different certificate types, including European Guarantees of Origin (GoOs), UK REGOs, US RECs, and international I-RECs.

  • Trade and Contract Management: Records EAC transactions and contractual delivery obligations, allowing users to track certificate quantities, specifications, counterparties, and settlement deadlines. Supports customized data fields and templates.

  • Automated Certificate Allocation: Uses allocation algorithms to match available certificates with contractual obligations. Supports bulk transfers, cancellations, and forward allocation of expected certificates to future sales commitments.

  • Registry Integration and Reconciliation: Connects with more than 30 certificate registries, automatically reconciling inventory and transaction records. Its Registry Bridge technology supports registries without conventional API connectivity.

  • Portfolio Analytics and Risk Monitoring: Provides real-time information on certificate holdings, delivery obligations, trading positions, and portfolio exposure. Customizable filters, reports, and deadline alerts support trading and operational decisions.

  • Audit Trails and System Integration: Maintains traceable records of certificate allocations and cancellations. Integrates with Energy Trading and Risk Management (ETRM) and Commodity Trading and Risk Management (CTRM) systems through APIs.

Closing Insights

CerQlar was established by ACT Group in 2020 to address the operational difficulties of managing environmental commodity certificates through spreadsheets and conventional energy trading systems. CerQlar recently published a case study explaining how German utility EWE uses the platform to automate registry reconciliation, improve certificate traceability, and manage its Guarantee of Origin portfolio. For organizations handling substantial EAC transaction volumes therefore offers an automated alternative to managing renewable energy certificates.
