How are RECs and Carbon Credits different?

RECs and carbon credits are quite different by definition. RECs represent an environmental attribute from renewable energy generation, while carbon credits represent the reduction, avoidance, or removal of GHG emissions.

But they are strikingly similar as well - both can be traded in a regulated market or voluntarily, and can be used to offset carbon footprint.
