ACHIEVE YOUR SUSTAINABILITY GOALS WITH RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES
What are Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs)?
Renewable Energy Certificates or RECs, are market-based instruments that represent the generation of RE from renewable sources such as solar, wind, hydropower, etc.
1 REC is created for every 1 MWh of energy generated and it gives the owner the right to claim the use of renewable energy.
How Do RECs Work?
RECs track and validate the generation of 1MWh of renewable energy, which offsets Scope 2 emissions. With RECs, your company can claim that it is powered by RE sources.
Who Should Buy RECs?
Renewable Energy Certificates may be a good fit for your company if you:​
-
want to reduce your energy consumption and carbon emissions.
-
are facing difficulties installing renewable energy (RE) facilities such as rooftop solar panels.
-
have ambitious sustainability goals you are trying to achieve
