Discussion

A designated consumer that misses its target and buys no certificates is liable to

  • A.the loss of its designation
  • B.a financial penalty
  • C.closure of the plant
  • D.a higher tariff for its energy

Answer: B

Correct answer: a financial penalty

Failure to meet the target and failure to buy certificates covering the shortfall together attract a penalty proportional to the shortfall, so the scheme has a definite price of non-compliance. That price is what makes the certificate market work: a plant will buy certificates whenever they cost less than the penalty.
