Energy Saving Certificates (CAEs)

What does CAE consist of?

The Energy Saving Certificate (CAE) is an electronic document that establishes the reliable recognition of the annual savings in final energy consumption derived from an energy efficiency action carried out either in accordance with the catalog of standardized sheets, or under the consideration of a singular action. Thanks to them, the reduction of energy consumption obtained thanks to different actions applied in the field of energy efficiency and implemented by consumers is guaranteed and quantified, thus assigning them to an owner (obligated subject) in a unique way.

At Azigrene we are specialists in energy savings and efficiency. We identify and promote projects that generate savings and reduce emissions, making an energy efficiency project fast, easy and efficient.

Azigrene Energy collaborates as an accredited and independent intermediary in the primary market to offer technical advice to work in the new system of Energy Saving Certificates (CAEs).

Main characteristics.

  • Mechanism for crediting the achievement of annual energy savings.
  • CAEs are issued for the value of one kilowatt hour (1 kWh) saved in a year, without decimal places, and will be indivisible.
  • Once a CAE has been issued, and after its registration in the National CAE Registry, it will be valid throughout the national territory and may be traded exclusively among those who can hold its ownership.
  • Only regulated entities or delegated entities may be holders of a CAE.
  • Each CAE will be univocally coded and will contain, at least, the identification of its holder and the expiration date of its validity.
  • The CAE may only be settled by the obligated entities and/or delegated entities.
