A question we often receive: How do I know the energy you supply is actually green?
Let’s break it down step by step.
What is Green Energy?
Green energy, also called renewable energy, comes from natural sources that are constantly replenished and have minimal environmental impact. Unlike fossil fuels, green energy doesn’t pollute or deplete the planet. Key renewable technologies include:
- Solar energy – capturing power from the sun through solar panels.
- Wind power – using turbines to harness the wind’s energy.
- Hydroelectric power – generating electricity from flowing water.
- Geothermal energy – using the Earth’s heat for power.
- Biomass energy – producing energy from organic materials sustainably.
These technologies convert natural resources into electricity without depleting them, providing a clean, sustainable alternative to traditional energy.
Why Green Energy Matters?
Green energy provides tangible benefits for the environment. By relying on naturally replenished resources, it significantly reduces carbon emissions compared to fossil fuels, which have powered our world for decades. Using renewable energy is a critical step toward a more sustainable, environmentally friendly future for generations to come.
How Can You Be Sure It’s 100% Green?
We understand the skepticism—many companies claim to offer 100% green energy, but it’s reasonable to ask whether it’s truly renewable. At Energy Nordic, we are committed to transparency: we only sell 100% green energy. This sets us apart from other suppliers, where “green energy” may be offered alongside conventional energy sources.
With us, you can be confident that every kilowatt of electricity you use comes from renewable sources, helping you reduce your carbon footprint and support a cleaner, greener planet.
How Energy Nordic Ensures 100% Green Electricity?
We have had several comments that exclaim that it is impossible for us to guarantee that only green energy reaches your homes or your companies, at least if you do not have a self-consumption installation. This is a comment that we come across periodically, and we always answer the same clear answer: yes, we are 100% green! In fact, it is the CNMC that guarantees and certifies it to us and allows us to market our services as such.
When it comes down to it, there are only two ways to guarantee that all the energy you consume is of entirely renewable origin:
- You produce it with your own self-consumption installation (eg. Solar panels)
- You have your energy supply with a company that holds the Guarantee of 100% Renewable Origin, issued by the CNMC (National Commission of Markets and Competition) in proportion to the energy you consume, as is the case with Energy Nordic.
Power that works with the planet, not against it.
By purchasing only energy that has been certified by the approving, governing body (CNMC) as 100% renewable, ensures that all the energy that we purchase and supply to our clients, has been sourced from a 100% renewable origin, even if the energy that reaches them directly comes from several different sources. What we guarantee is the initial origin is from renewable production. In this way, together, we manage to increase the amount of homes and business that use green energy and we hope that one day, the world will be 100% green.
To summarise, more than 400 renewable producers are in charge of pouring renewable energy into the electrical grid every day for Energy Nordic, so that 100% of what our customers consume has been produced by them. So – yes, we are 100% green!
As a renewable energy supplier, sustainability is part of our DNA and central to our mission, so we are always looking for additional steps to make further responsible environmental choices. So, in keeping with our green efforts, Energy Nordic are ‘Practising What We Print’ – Where possible, we always choose to use products from 100% recycled materials. It’s also why we send all communication to you by email. Sending contracts, bills, and letters to you electronically is far more environmentally friendly.
We believe energy should be better, a better experience for you, your wallet and the environment. We promote transparency, simplicity and ethics in all our actions; working every day to make green energy more accessible to everyone. The best news of all, is that we are getting there! Together.
If you too are looking for ways to decrease your carbon footprint little by little, why not think about changing to 100% green energy (and save money at the same time!).
Be part of the green revolution!
Switch to Energy Nordic – it only takes 2 minutes and we take care of all the practicalities.
I do not want to be rude and I accept that you are generating green energy but the energy supplied to my home could come from any supplier as you all use the same wiring.. I have chosen to pay you for the energy supplied and I suppose you can therefore claim that the energy I use has come from you. The only way I can be certain is to have a separate circuit to my home from you or like the example you quoted in your example. Richard
Hi there William, Thank you for your comment. We do not generate energy – we are suppliers. We arrange the purchase and billing of the energy supplied to you through the cabling owned by the distributor. The CNMC issues certificates of compliance to suppliers that only purchase energy through renewable means and that is what is supplied to your home. By using a supplier of 100% certified green energy, you know that the power you have paid towards, supports renewable production. Thank you – Customer Service
