Hundreds of companies have set renewable energy commitments. Energy Attribute Certificates (EACs) enable them to immediately and effectively meet their targets and support the generation of renewable energy globally.
Renewables are the second largest contributor to global electricity production, accounting for 30% of generation in 2020, after gas and ahead of coal, nuclear, and oil.
Energy Attribute Certificates
Energy Attribute Certificates (EACs) enable companies to reach renewable energy and emission reduction targets while contributing to the growth of clean energy worldwide. They ensure renewable energy generation is tracked effectively, to support credible claims of renewable energy use.
Each EAC tracks 1 megawatt hour (MWh) of renewable energy from production through to consumption and retirement on third-party registries, to reliably evidence your renewable energy claim. EACs are categorized by where and when they are generated and where they can be used.
North America and Europe
We deliver a wide range of renewable energy solutions to meet our clients’ requirements for high-quality, global EACs that match their consumption, including Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) in North America, Guarantees of Origin (GOs) in Europe, and Renewable Energy Guarantees of Origin (REGOs) in the UK.
Rest of the world
The International Renewable Energy Certificate (I-REC) provides the tracking systems required for reliable, credible use of renewable energy outside North America and Europe. Climate Impact Partners is the leading supplier of I-RECs globally, through its comprehensive renewable energy portfolios developed for clients.
Tradable Instruments for Global Renewables (TIGRs) is another system available for renewable energy use, where RECs, GOs and I-REC are not available.
