EKOenergy is an international not-for-profit ecolabel for energy (renewable electricity as well as renewable gas, heat and cold).
In addition to being renewable, EKOenergy-labelled energy fulfils additional sustainability criteria and finances projects that combat energy poverty.
The EKOenergy ecolabel can be combined with any sourcing method: Green tariffs, Power Purchasing Agreements (PPAs), unbundled energy certificates such as Guarantees of Origin, RECs, I-RECs and others. Energy from on-site installations can also carry the EKOenergy label. EKOenergy brings additional positive impact to consumers’ renewable energy choice, regardless of the method of purchase or consumption.
The Greenhouse Gas Protocol, LEED for green buildings, CDP and the RE100 describe the EKOenergy ecolabel as a good solution for consumers that want to take an extra step.
