Energy Attribute Certificates (EACs) are tradable instruments that verify one megawatt-hour (MWh) of electricity was generated from a renewable source. They are the primary mechanism for organizations to substantiate renewable energy consumption claims and reduce Scope 2 emissions under the GHG Protocol's market-based method.
EACs span across regional and international frameworks including RECs in North America, Guarantees of Origin (GoOs) in Europe, I-RECs in over 50 countries globally, and various national certificate systems. Each certificate is tracked through dedicated registries to ensure uniqueness, traceability, and the prevention of double-counting.
Whether used for compliance with state-level Renewable Portfolio Standards (RPS), voluntary commitments under RE100 and SBTi, or corporate ESG disclosure, EACs provide a cost-effective, scalable pathway to credible renewable energy procurement.

Frequently asked questions
What is an Energy Attribute Certificate (EAC)?
An EAC represents 1 MWh of renewable electricity added to the grid. It’s how you verify your energy use is backed by renewables.
How do EACs help reduce emissions?
EACs address Scope 2 emissions by enabling you to claim renewable electricity use under global standards.
What’s the difference between EACs and carbon credits?
EACs = renewable electricity (Scope 2)
Carbon credits = offset remaining emissions
Both play different roles in a complete climate strategy.
Are EACs recognized by global standards?
Yes—EACs are accepted by frameworks like the GHG Protocol, RE100, and CDP.
How do I know the certificates are credible?
Credible EACs are verified, tracked in registries, and retired after use, preventing double counting.
