  "title": "The Renewables Obligation (Scotland) Order 2009",
  "short_title": "Renewables Obligation 2009",
  "long_title": "This Order is made under sections 32 to 32M of the Electricity Act 1989, as substituted by section 37 of the Energy Act 2008. It imposes an obligation (“the renewables obligation”) on all electricity suppliers, licensed under the Electricity Act 1989 (“the Act”) which supply electricity in Scotland. The renewables obligation requires these electricity suppliers to produce a certain number of renewables obligation certificates in respect of each megawatt hour of electricity that they supply to customers in Scotland during a specified period (article 5). It also “bands” the different technologies that are used to generate electricity from renewable sources, meaning that the number of certificates that will be issued in respect of that electricity depends on the way in which that electricity has been generated. The renewables obligation is administered by the Gas and Electricity Markets Authority (“the Authority”) who issue renewables obligation certificates to renewable electricity generators, in accordance with their renewable output. These certificates are sold to electricity suppliers with or without the associated renewable electricity.",
