New Jersey SREC prices have been strong this year and are currently at the $180 level for the 2014 vintage SRECs. Prices have been strong due to compliance buying by energy providers. After the buying for this years’ compliance is done we expect SREC prices to drop back down. Prices could drop to $120 or lower by this fall/winter. We suggest to our sellers that you sell any accumulated SRECs into this price rally.
There is a chance that prices could continue to move up a little more this summer however, we suggest to take advantage of these high prices in case they drop. In the past we have found that sellers that miss selling at the high prices tend to hold SRECs for over a year and resort to hoping and praying for prices to recover. If trends continue as they have during the past few years solar will continue to become cheaper and a lower SREC value will be needed to convince new investors to build more solar.
CHECK YOUR GATS ACCOUNT FOR OLDER SRECS BEFORE THEY EXPIRE!
Some solar generators hold SRECs for many years. If you have old Energy Year 2012 (generated from June 2011 to May 2012) solar credits sitting in your GATs account you must sell them because if you do not they will lose significant value soon! Energy companies cannot use these SRECs for solar compliance after this fall. Prices for these older SRECs trade at a slight discount at this time. Prices are listed in real time on our Flett Exchange trading platform and also on our website. If you have any of these older SRECs sell them on our platform or call us and we can walk you through the sales process. We have found energy companies willing to purchase these SRECs at this time.
