EAC Management
End-to-end handling of Energy Attribute Certificates to achieve the sustainability potential of Power Purchase Agreements.
Expertise to maximise the value of PPAs
Signing a PPA is a big milestone in any company’s climate journey. However, getting the highest sustainability results from these contracts depends on skilfully handling the EACs issued — knowing the rules for cross-border EAC transfers, having access to national registries, timely and correctly cancelling certificates, and allocating them to the right consumption points.
Ecohz takes care of this process from start to finish to ensure that you comply with regulations, meet global standards —such as CDP, SBTi and RE100— and confidently communicate your clean energy accomplishments.
What you get
The expert management of EACs has been at the heart of our business for more than 20 years. Tapping into our competence ensures that you:
1. Demonstrate the use of renewable electricity and credibly decarbonise your Scope 2.
2. Take advantage of cross-border clean energy procurement opportunities.
3. Comply with regulations for documenting renewable energy use.
4. Establish the groundwork to report reduced emissions in line with voluntary corporate standards such as CDP, SBTi and RE100 and to fulfil mandatory reporting tasks, including the European CSRD.
How it works
Ecohz handles all incoming EACs to reduce administrative burdens and ensure your PPA portfolio is balanced and tidy.
- Ecohz receives the EACs from your company’s PPA partners.
- We keep your certificates in dedicated accounts, which you can monitor through our customer portal to ensure all deliveries are done correctly.
- Through our broad network of partners across multiple registries, we cancel EACs in the appropriate locations on your behalf according to best practices and the rules of the national domains.
- Ecohz can manage Guarantees of Origin, I-RECs and RECs.
- If your PPAs do not cover your entire consumption, Ecohz can assist in procuring the necessary volumes.
- GO expiration rules can be a challenge for PPA off-takers. We establish routines to minimise the risk of clients being unable to utilise the entire PPA volume.
After managing, comes reporting. Ecohz offers a complementary Energy and GHG Reporting service to help companies deliver reports to CDP, RE100 and comply with regulations such as the CSRD in Europe.
Renewable energy management made simple
Through Ecohzone, our digital customer platform, you can monitor all aspects of EAC handling.
- Obtain a summary of incoming volumes sorted by production device and period.
- Filter according to region, certificate type, production year, production country, and other characteristics.
- Follow the status of all EACs (received and cancelled).
- Download reports as Excel files compatible with CDP reporting formats.
- Access a document repository with cancellation statements, contracts, and invoices.
