Hi,
The property owner has had a green electricity agreement with the electricity supplier for many years. However, here in Sweden, people do not usually sign binding contracts and have insted contracts on an ongoing basis. Therefore I am wondering if a statement from the property owner to buy 100% green electricity for at least 5 years in the future would be enough? Or we must sign a 5-year green electricity contract?
Regards,
//Russell

I believe that you have to have a 5 year contract or buy 5 years worth all at once in the case of RECs.
