In different decisions of 1 February 2010 the Council of State dismisses the argument invoked by electricity suppliers that the Flemish energy regulator VREG has to accept non-Flemish green electricity certificates (groenestroomcertificaten) allowing the suppliers to comply with their obligation to hand in a certain amount of those certificates in relation to the electricity they supplied the preceding year.
The Council of State explicitly refers to article 25 of the Flemish electricity decree. According to the Council of State, the Flemish government only has to accept such non-Flemish green electricity certificates if the underlying non-Flemish regulation gives the same guarantee as the Flemish regulation.
