    After organization account approval, the M-RETS system administrator will send the designated organization admin an invite to log into the system. Additional users and REC accounts can then be created from inside the organization. Typically, for Load Serving Entities (LSE), State Regulators, Qualified Reporting Entities, and Marketers/Brokers these are the only steps in the registration process.

    Owners of generating units/facilities, in addition to creating an account, must also register each one of their generators, and must designate a Qualifying Reporting Entity for each their facilities.

    The Registry Administrator will review the Asset registration. If the Asset application is complete and approved, an email notification describing account approval will be sent to the Account Holder.  If materials are incomplete or additional information is required, the Administrator will notify the Account Manager.
