Work package 2 will develop a set of harmonised European rules, regulations, procedures and requirements for issuing biomethane/renewable methane Guarantees of Origin (GoO), based on the cooperation of national issuing bodies. Ergar, the European Renewable Gas Registry, will establish a network of national issuing bodies and set out the agreed-upon rules for participating in the system. It will also define the processual, administrative, technical and organizational requirements for a secure and automated hub (the technical interface) that can connect all national issuing bodies and form a European biomethane/renewable gas trading platform. It is in charge of defining the tender procedure for building the hub and the European biomethane/renewable gas trading platform and will assess the technical concept for both the hub and the connected European biomethane/renewable gas trading platform.
