The GTL Certificate

Green Transmission Line Seal

GTL certificates reflect compliance with GTL Standard metrics at the time of issuance of the Certificate by IDB Invest. The GTL Certificate does not certify or guarantee, and IDB Invest does not evaluate or opine on, any compliance with applicable laws or regulations, likelihood of project success, results to be obtained from the project, any tax or other regulatory treatment to be afforded to the project, or compliance with or certification under the standards of any other organization or body. The GTL Certificate is granted to the identified project(s) and not to the Applicant.
