As sustainability reporting becomes more standardized and as regulators, investors, and customers demand greater transparency, verified claims are increasingly becoming the baseline rather than the exception.
Green-e® Energy is the leading voluntary certification program for renewable energy in North America, setting standards to ensure claims are accurate, transparent, and supported by properly tracked and retired renewable energy certificates (RECs).
If you plan to make Green-e Energy claims for Reporting Year (RY) 2025, it’s crucial to start planning early to ensure data accuracy and availability, internal review cycles, and verifier capacity. Verification reports are due June 1, 2026, so it’s time to select your verification body and prepare for reporting to avoid delays.
