Definition
'Delivered Renewable Energy, also called consumed, retail, or purchased renewable energy) is the amount or percentage of renewable energy (e.g. in Megawatt-Hour units) that is serving, consumed or purchased by, or delivered, sold, or imported to specific retail electricity customers, load, or a specific geographic area over a certain timeframe.
Given the physics of electricity grids, the delivered renewable energy cannot be directly measured at the point of delivery or consumption, or determined based on proximity to generation sources. Its measurement requires instead an instrument or method for allocating, attributing, assigning, and tracking renewable generation attributes to load.
