I haven't found anywhere in the LEED-NC 2009 Ref. Guide that stated which party has to execute the REC contract with the provider. Does anyone have experience with the GBCI as to whether it is acceptable to upload the executed contract having the general contractor as the signee on behalf of the property owner as long as all the requirements to achieve this credit are met?

Hi Elliot- it is completely acceptable for the general contractor to execute a REC contract for EAc6. As long as the project's registered name is documented on the contract, and all of the requirements to achieve this credit are met- it will not be an issue for your submittal! Hope this helps!

To add on to Elliot's question, if the GC is the signee on the executed contract, can the GC also be the signatory on the EAc6 template instead of the owner? Or does the owner still need to be the signatory even if they didn't purchase the green power?
Thanks in advance

The GC can sign the form.
