- Audience: Regulated entities and their authorised users

Why attend?
Understanding how to use the unit registry is essential to trading and extinguishing units. Entities with an interim emissions value (IEV) above zero can extinguish units against their IEV to lower their final emissions value (FEV). If an entity doesn’t have units or wants more units, one way to do this is to trade with another entity. Entities negotiate directly to determine the terms of the trade.

What the training will cover
The session will help entities and their users to:
- use the NVES Unit Registry to manage their compliance obligations under the NVES
- understand the different roles in the unit registry such as ‘Initiator’, ‘Authoriser’, ‘Registry Administrator’ and ‘Registry Viewer’
- manage their units, including viewing, trading and extinguishing units.
The training will also help them to understand other key concepts including their IEV, benefits of trading and/or extinguishing units and how to get contact details of entities interested in trading.
