Proof that your company uses 100% renewable energy

Hydro-Québec’s electricity mix is among the most renewable in the world (>99%), yet some organizations are required to prove they consume 100% renewable energy. How can they do this? With renewable energy certificates (RECs). By purchasing RECs, you become the sole owner of the environmental attributes associated with your use of 100% renewable electricity.

What’s a renewable energy certificate?

A renewable energy certificate (REC) is equal to 1 MWh of electricity generated from a 100% renewable source.

How does it work?

Although, more than 99% of Hydro-Québec’s electricity is generated from renewable sources,

you can’t say for sure where your electricity comes from ...

unless your company purchases RECs!

When you purchase a REC for the amount of electricity your building uses in a year, you become the owner of the environmental attributes associated with the energy the building consumes.
