FAQ

Common Questions

Do I own my RECs, or does my utility take them? ⌄

In most states, unless you explicitly signed a REC transfer agreement with your utility, you still own them. Most interconnection agreements are silent on REC ownership. We verify your status for free on the assessment call.

What is the RGM token and do I need it? ⌄

RGM is the Ridgemont governance and utility token. You don't need it to use the exchange or managed brokerage — but holding and staking RGM multiplies your LP fee earnings up to 2.5x and grants governance voting rights. It's earned by providing liquidity or participating in the protocol.

How much does the managed brokerage service cost? ⌄

Zero upfront. We charge 10–15% commission only when we sell your RECs. For ITC transfers, we take 2–3% of the credit value. If we don't generate revenue for you, you pay nothing. Ever.

My system is only 50kW — is it worth it? ⌄

Even a 50kW system generates ~75 MWh/year. At $10/MWh in a voluntary market, that's $750/year — $15,000 over 20 years you're walking away from. In a compliance state like Massachusetts, that same system earns $23,400/year. We've monetized systems as small as 25kW.

How is the on-chain exchange different from traditional REC brokers? ⌄

Traditional brokers are intermediaries who mark up prices and settle trades over weeks. Our on-chain exchange provides instant settlement, transparent pricing, and continuous liquidity 24/7. LPs set prices through market mechanics rather than broker discretion — meaning better prices for both buyers and sellers.

Are on-chain RECs legally valid for compliance purposes? ⌄

Yes. Every REC traded on the Ridgemont protocol is backed 1:1 by a registry-verified certificate in WREGIS, GATS, PJM-GATS, or M-RETS. The on-chain representation is a wrapper — the underlying registry certificate is what counts for state RPS compliance.
