A brief description of the certified/verified sources of clean and renewable electricity:
The registry process that Florida Power and Light's 3rd party, NAR , manages, provides certainty that the generation is from a renewable source equipped with highly reliable generation output collection meters and that each REC created, issued, and retired can be traced back to the FPL Solar Together solar energy centers.
NAR is a Green E approved registry: "Approved Tracking Systems. Renewable energy generators in North America must be registered in one or more of the following approved tracking systems: ERCOT, MIRECS, MRETS, NAR, NCRETS, NEPOOL GIS, NYGATS, PJM GATS, or WREGIS." - https://www.green-e.org/programs/energy/documents
