Green-e
The independent Green-e certification programme is administered by the Center for Resource Solutions, a non-profit organisation.
The Green-e programme establishes certain standards that an energy product / producer must meet in order to gain the certification.
These standards include:
- criteria for eligible energy sources
- meeting the Green-e code of conduct
- submitting marketing materials to Green-e for approval
- disclosing figures via an annual audit and;
- standardising pricing and contract presentation for easy comparison.
Meeting these requirements allows the renewable energy provider (e.g the wind farm) to display the Green-e logo next to their energy product.
Visit the Green-e website to find out more about the certification programme.
