Update - Hot Water VEECs
We’re excited to share that Formbay is expanding its Water Heating VEEC capabilities — continuing to broaden the ways we support retailers managing energy efficiency certificates through our platform.
This expansion allows retailers to begin managing VEEC Water Heating submissions within Formbay without unnecessary duplication, building on our existing capabilities across STCs and additional activity types.
