In the United Kingdom (UK), after the liberalization of the electric market by enforcing the new Electricity Act 1989, the Distributed Generation Co-ordination Group (DGCG) was established to conduct a purchase obligation of renewable energy by introducing Renewable Obligation Certificates (ROCs) in 2002. A ROC is
