We all know we need to reduce emissions and decarbonise. But if we can’t reduce our energy use, how do we do it?
That's where carbon credits, sometimes called CERs (Certified Emission Reductions), come in. Each emission reduction unit represents a reduction or removal of one tonne of Carbon Dioxide equivalent (CO2e) through a project.
We can help you offset the carbon emissions generated from your energy use by buying carbon credits from certified carbon reduction projects around the world. These include projects to protect or plant trees or increase renewable energy generation.
Carbon offset credits result in actual reductions in carbon emission because we select from verified sources that are:
Your carbon offsetting options
Whatever the size of your business and your sustainability goals, we have a product to suit you. You don’t have to be an energy customer to get our carbon offset products.
We have two different types of carbon offset:
If you use a high energy user, we can create a bespoke green energy package.
Standard
If you’re starting out on your sustainability journey and want to focus on climate benefits, then Standard would be your best choice. Every unit helps offset greenhouse gas emissions across different carbon reduction projects in several developing countries.
Premium
If you’re ready to invest a little more in sustainability, then choose Premium carbon offsetting. We can source certificates from projects like Rimba Raya, a unique forestation and biodiversity project in Indonesia.
In 2009, we were one of the first investors in Rimba Raya and it’s grown since then. As well as climate benefits, the project helps the local community with education and employment. It also focuses on biodiversity, helping protect endangered species in the world’s largest privately-funded orangutan sanctuary. Rimba Raya supports all 17 of the UN Sustainable Development Goals and holds Triple Gold under the global Climate, Community and Biodiversity (CCB) standards.
