Can I have green energy?

Yes, and we can help you make the switch. We offer clear, expert advice on renewable electricity tariffs for UK businesses, including fully certified green options.

Switching to renewable energy can support your environmental goals, strengthen your corporate image, and reduce your carbon footprint. In many cases, green energy costs the same or less than standard tariffs.

What is REGO?

The Renewable Energy Guarantees of Origin (REGO) scheme gives you transparency about where your electricity comes from. REGOs are official certificates that prove electricity has been generated from renewable sources such as wind, solar or hydro.

This allows your business to confidently promote its use of cleaner, greener energy.
