Driving Decarbonization: How Green Tariff Programs Empower Utilities and Businesses

In today’s increasingly complex and rapidly changing energy market, advanced energy consumers with ambitious net zero targets are driving the push for cleaner energy solutions to advance decarbonization. Utilities are under pressure to provide innovative pathways for businesses (and households) to access renewable energy, and one of the most common mechanisms is through green tariff […]

Choosing the Right Path: 24/7 Carbon-Free Energy vs Emissions First

In the evolving landscape of energy sustainability, corporate energy buyers face a pivotal choice when moving beyond 100% Renewable Energy through the use of Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs), bundled or unbundled with physically delivered power, to a more advanced clean energy and decarbonization strategy: embrace 24/7 Carbon-Free Energy (CFE) or prioritize an Emissions First approach. […]

Renewable Energy Procurement: What are electricity customers seeking beyond clean energy?

In the evolving landscape of corporate sustainability, the integration of renewable energy has become a cornerstone of decarbonization strategies, for a company’s Scope 2 carbon footprint (indirect emissions from purchased electricity) and beyond. In the real estate sector, building owners are increasingly considering the energy impacts of their tenants and in some cases offering renewable […]
