MCS - The Microgeneration Certification Scheme

The Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS) is an industry-led and nationally recognised quality assurance scheme, supported by the UK Government. MCS itself is a BS EN ISO/IEC 17065:2012 Scheme and was launched in 2007. For further information on the history of MCS please download this document.

MCS certifies microgeneration products used to produce electricity and heat from renewable sources. MCS also certifies installation companies to ensure the microgeneration products have been installed and commissioned to the highest standard for the consumer. The certification is based on a set of installer standards and product scheme requirements which are available in the MCS Standards section of this website.
