Source renewable energy certificates (RECs) for electricity used at your operations in Korea. You contract directly with Korean renewable energy generators. CARBON STAR, authorized by the generators to sell their RECs, manages the transaction process, and buyers are not charged a separate brokerage fee.

The generator is the seller. Price, volume, delivery and transfer terms are set in this agreement.
The generator authorizes CARBON STAR to carry out REC sales work. CARBON STAR is compensated under its arrangement with the generator.
We are your working contact for quotes, term discussions, contract steps and transaction administration. CARBON STAR is not the seller of the RECs.
Supply changes with generator availability, so we don't publish a fixed inventory or price list. Send us your requirements and we'll share matching options with the details below.
Capacity is not volume. A generator's installed capacity (MW) is not the same as the RECs available for sale (MWh). Quotes state the volume offered in MWh together with the corresponding number of certificates.
Pricing is provided by quotation. REC prices depend on supply, vintage, volume and timing.
Five steps from request to documentation.
We confirm the target site or entity, use or reporting year, and required volume with you.
We propose matching generators and terms, with supply information.
Your company signs the REC sale and purchase agreement with the generator.
RECs are transferred under the contract through Korea's official process, with administrative and settlement support.
Agreed evidence documents are provided, with follow-up support for your reporting.
Official certificates and REC use confirmations are issued through Korea's official system, not by CARBON STAR. We support the steps within the agreed scope.
With the generator. The REC sale and purchase agreement is between your purchasing entity and the Korean renewable energy generator that supplies the RECs. CARBON STAR is not the seller and does not resell RECs. We act as the generator's authorized sales agent and manage the process with you.
No. CARBON STAR does not charge buyers a separate brokerage fee. The REC price and other commercial terms are set out in your agreement with the generator. Any other costs that may apply to the transaction are confirmed with you during quotation, before you sign.
CARBON STAR is compensated by the generator side, under a revenue-sharing arrangement agreed with the generator. The terms of that arrangement are confidential between CARBON STAR and the generator.
Because we act on behalf of generators, we are not an independent advisor to the buyer. We share supply information openly so your team can make its own assessment.
Yes. Your headquarters or APAC team can be our main contact for quotation, term discussions and scheduling.
The entity that signs the agreement and in whose name REC use is confirmed is a separate question. It is generally the entity that uses electricity at the Korean site, so it is usually your Korean entity. We confirm the correct contracting and use-confirmation entity with you early in the process.
To start: your Korean site or entity (or "still being determined"), the target use or reporting year, and the required volume in MWh (or "not yet determined"). If you have them, also share your preferred timing, any requirements on generation source, vintage or facility age, and the reporting standard you follow.
The documentation for each transaction is agreed in advance. It can include the executed agreement, supply information on the generator (source, location, commercial operation date, generation period), and transaction and settlement records.
Official certificates and REC use confirmations come from Korea's official system. CARBON STAR does not issue them.
We check supply information against your stated criteria: the target site, the generating facility, the vintage, and the standard you report against (for example, RE100 technical criteria such as facility-age requirements).
Whether RECs are accepted under a given standard depends on that standard and on your company's own review. We do not guarantee that any REC meets every framework.
We're happy to discuss recurring or multi-year needs. Availability, volumes and terms depend on generator supply at the time, and are confirmed in each agreement.
