When it comes to global companies supporting clean energy , Vattenfall and Engie are working on a new initiative led by independent non-profit organization EnergyTag. It aims to demonstrate the feasibility of checking the supply of clean electricity every hour to provide accurate data 24 hours a day.
Edie says that currently, most energy attribute certificates – known as Guarantees of Origin (GO) in Europe, Renewable Energy Certificates (REC) in the United States and Renewable Energy Guarantees of Origin (REGO) in the United Kingdom United Kingdom—are emitted for each unit (MWh) of clean energy production.
Most companies purchase these certificates to meet annual demand, meaning green energy production is accounted for on an annual basis. What this does not cover is the volatility of clean energy supply, including cases where renewable generation may be scarce, and fossil fuels contribute more to grids, or when renewables are in excess supply and therefore So much so, they are wasted.
Energy Tag states that there is currently no recognized system to verify hourly consumption of clean energy and has brought together more than 100 companies to test and demonstrate the viability of better clean energy traceability.
Let's imagine that we try to drink only the apple Chile Mobile Number List juice from a smoothie: it is impossible when everything is mixed. It's the same problem with electricity. We need a transparent way to verify the origin of the energy we consume every hour to accelerate the deployment of the technologies necessary to fight climate change.
We call on the world's largest energy users, energy companies and investors to get involved and help deliver 24/7 clean energy for all.

Global companies supporting clean energy: 6 projects
The companies have announced six demonstration projects in the United States, Denmark, the Netherlands, Sweden, Norway and Australia with support from companies such as Google, Microsoft, Vattenfall, Centrica, Energinet, Statkraft and Eneco.
The projects will test hourly data on renewable energy generation and how grid flexibility and energy storage can help achieve a zero-carbon system, with results due to be published by the end of the year.
Google and Microsoft among the 100 global companies supporting clean energy
The power purchase agreement (PPA) market is currently much more mature in the United States and Central America than in Europe. Bloomberg NEF analysis of clean energy PPAs found that a 40% year-on-year global increase in clean energy procurement by companies in 2019 was led by action in the United States.
However, Covid-19 has caused the amount of generation supported by US-based corporations that signed PPAs to be almost a third lower in the first half of 2020 than in the first half of 2019.
