My local utility has independent certification of it's current renewable portfolio, can this be credited against the Green Power percentage? e.g. Utility 20% renewable + 17.5% REC purchase = 37.5%.

It has to be Green-e certified. Typically much of the renewable portfolio of individual unilities are the result of a mandate or include things like large scale hydro which does not qualify under Green-e.
