OK Power - German ecolabel

This German ecolabel, managed by the Hamburg Institut, promotes the consumption of renewable electricity from new installations to accelerate the energy transition.

Buying Guarantees of Origin with OK Power allows consumers and utilities to support renewable energy deployment by creating an additional incentive for investments in new clean power capacity.

How does it work?

Ecohz offers OK POWER-certified Guarantees of Origin (GOs) from electricity production that meets the following criteria:

  • It must be generated from 100% renewable sources.
  • It must come from power plants that do not receive any governmental support.
  • The power generator must not be involved or have any stake in nuclear or coal power plants.

In addition, all installations that offer OK POWER-certified GOs must meet a strict age requirement to incentivise the construction of new renewable capacity. The commissioning date of the eligible power plants is limited to the following:

  • Hydropower: 8 years
  • Wind power: 4 years
  • Photovoltaics: 5 years
  • Biomass: 4 years
  • Geothermal: 8 years
