Reduce Your Scope 2 Carbon Emissions
Reach Your Renewable Energy Goals!
The Energy Problem
Electricity is produced from both green & grey sources. When it is fed into the grid & distributed, each electron is indistinguishable.
Renewable Energy
(Green Energy)
- Solar
- Wind
- Hydropower
- Biomass
Fossil Energy
(Gray Energy)
- Fossil
- Oil
- Gas
- Coal
There is no way for electricity consumers to track ‘green’ or ‘grey’ electrons through the central grid
Clean Your Energy Source with REC
While electron source cannot be backtracked, your company can purchase a REC (Renewable Energy Certificate) to track the green attributes of renewable energy.
