Choosing renewable energy from wind, solar, hydro, and biomass sources plays an essential role in reducing emissions and moving the global energy transition forward. Renewable energy sourcing is key to achieving climate targets.
However, renewable and non-renewable power sources generally share the same grids. This makes it impossible to know where your electricity comes from. The only way to claim renewable power is to purchase renewable energy certificates.
This is where we come in.
We offer both Renewable Energy Quota Certificates to meet regulatory requirements as well as Energy Attribute Certificates to help achieve your ambitious corporate sustainability goals.
Regulatory compliance products
Meeting regulatory compliance
with renewable energy
quota certificates
Many countries have created compliance frameworks for renewable energy generation. Energy producers and importers under these frameworks must supply a minimum amount of renewable energy annually to the grid or purchase renewable energy quota certificates generated by other producers. Quota certificates help to subsidize renewable energy for market players.
We have the products and the extensive compliance knowledge to help you navigate the complex and ever-shifting regulatory landscape. We support our clients in complying with regulatory obligations with products such as:
Renewable Energy Quota Certificates
Accounting for 1 MWh per certificate, these certificates are an alternative option for producers and importers that are obliged to supply a certain amount of renewable energy to the grid every year. These certificates include elcertificates (elcerts), GSCs, and ROCs.
Corporate sustainability products
Achieving
corporate sustainability with
energy attribute certificates
Using renewable energy certificates to accelerate climate action helps you stand out in your industry as environmental leaders. Purchasing renewable energy products helps prove to your stakeholders, clients, customers, and industry peers that you are taking steps toward sustainability and responsibly sourced energy.
We offer a wide range of renewable energy products to help organizations meet their sustainability goals. Choosing the certificates that match your organization’s needs is a challenge that we like to solve.
Here are some of our most impactful and popular products:
With our expertise and market knowledge, we help organizations achieve their ambitious climate action goals and provide support on how to communicate their environmental efforts to their internal stakeholders and potential and current clients and investors.
Guarantees of Origin (GoO, REGO)
These products certify that your power has been generated from renewable sources. One certificate represents the generation of 1 Megawatt hour of electricity. They are used specifically in Europe.
Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs)
These certificates are used to prove that your power has been generated from renewable sources. One certificate represents the generation of 1 Megawatt hour of electricity. They are specifically used in North America.
Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs)
PPAs allow you to purchase renewable electricity for a predetermined period from an energy partner based on a bilateral agreement. They also work to reduce financial risks associated with energy expenses and provide income for energy producers over an extended period.
Biomethane Certificates
These certificates represent renewable, low-carbon energy generation from upgrading raw biogas. Each certificate equals 1 MWh of biomethane supplied to the gas grid.

Impact
Purchasing renewable energy certificates helps you hit sustainability targets and promotes your commitment to renewable electricity sources. It also highlights your organization as an advocate for renewables. Scaling demand for renewable energy certificates leads to more renewable electricity being generated.
When you purchase renewable energy products, you can make claims benchmarked against guidance from advisory bodies including:
Finding ways to transition to renewable energy sources and hit regulatory and climate targets can be complex and time-consuming when this isn't your core business. Environmental legislation evolves quickly, and advisory bodies consistently revise what needs to be achieved to hit global environmental targets. As experts in regulatory compliance and climate standards, we enable you to efficiently achieve your regulatory and climate action goals as you continue your energy transition journeys. We have access to global markets and networks, allowing us to provide custom-fit renewable energy portfolios to your needs. In addition, our extensive market and regulatory knowledge of specific regions enables us to help you easily and cost-effectively achieve environmental targets and objectives.
Our global reach means that we can analyze all potential sources for specific product portfolios. In addition, our in-depth product knowledge means we can select the right product for the right client at the right time. We can provide short and long-term solutions, including Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) and Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) to satisfy your renewable energy needs moving forward.
We have a wide range of products that satisfy many different regulatory frameworks globally. Our products include, but are not limited to:
Renewable electricity:
Renewable gas certificates:
Many of our renewable energy certificates also carry ecolabels proving their environmental performance.
Decreasing your company’s reliance on fossil fuels contributes to a better future for our planet. Renewable energy generation pollutes less, which mitigates climate change. Since our founding, we have sourced renewable energy certificates equaling 690 TWh of renewable power. That’s equivalent to 17% of the annual power generation of the entire US.
There are many pragmatic reasons to purchase renewable energy certificates as well. The more financing you direct toward renewable energy, the more cost-efficient it becomes.When you purchase certificates, you fund existing wind, solar, hydro, biomass, and other installations, and contribute to the renewable energy market.
Choosing sustainable options also makes a powerful statement to your stakeholders and clients about your climate action ambition.
