Electric utilities and retail electricity providers in Oregon are required to ensure that certain percentages of their sales are derived from renewable energy sources. These requirements vary depending on utility size and contain incremental requirements leading up to final goals. Large investor-owned utilities must source 50% of sales from renewable energy sources by 2040 of consumer-owned utilities must source 25% of sales from renewable energy sources by 2025. Utilities may use Renewable Energy Credits to achieve compliance.
