    What our customers said

    Driven by our own commitments, which are aligned to UKGBC guidance, we support the development of higher standards in renewable electricity contracts and reporting. It is essential that organizations enhance energy supply chain transparency and embrace accountability on their journey to reach net zero and the transition to a sustainable future.

    David Mead Associate - Property & Asset Management, JLL

    The University has been involved in discussions about traceable renewable energy supplies for the last couple of years, so we were very pleased to be approached by our supplier, SmartestEnergy, about taking part in a trial of their scheme ahead of its full launch. We recognise that annual matching of electricity consumption with renewable generation assets is no longer sufficient to encourage the development of more renewables, so we welcome Traceable Renewable Supply from SmartestEnergy to provide half-hourly matching and drive electricity production further towards genuine carbon neutrality.
