The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) is a public standards organization that brings together the national standardization bodies of 34 European countries. CEN provides a platform for developing European Standards (ENs) and other technical documents in relation to various products, materials, services, and processes, supporting the European Single Market.
A Technical Committee (TC) in CEN is a group of experts responsible for developing international standards in a specific technical area. TCs are composed of national member body delegates and work through consensus to create standards that meet global industry needs. Each TC may have subcommittees (SCs) and working groups (WGs) for specialized topics.
Amendment to EN 16325:2013 due to the fact that the new Directive on Energy Efficiency (2012/27/EU) has been approved. References to the former Cogeneration Directive (2004/8/EG) has to be revised. A thorough review must be performed to see if there are changes due to the new Directive. The revision should be done according to a UAP review.

This European Standard specifies requirements for Guarantees of Origin of electricity from all energy sources. This standard will establish the relevant terminology and definitions, requirements for registration, issuing, transferring and cancellation in line with the RES, Cogeneration and IEM Directives. This standard will also cover measuring methods and auditing procedures.
These Guarantees of Origin may be traded and/or used for Disclosure/Labelling.
The content of this standard can, for example, be applied, after necessary modifications, to heating, cooling, and gas (including biogas). These modifications are not part of this standard.
This European Standard will not establish any sustainability criteria, this work is done elsewhere.
This standard is suitable for certification purposes.
