A certificate is to certify—

a

that the generating station or, in the case of a certificate issued to an electricity supplier, a generating station specified in the certificate, has generated from renewable sources the amount of electricity stated in the certificate; and

b

that it has been supplied to customers in Great Britain (or the part of Great Britain stated in the certificate).
