Tips for tackling Scope 3—upstream and downstream

4 common mistakes suppliers make when buying renewable energy

As the focus on Scope 3 decarbonisation increases, suppliers are receiving more requirements from their clients to purchase renewable energy and meet a range of criteria. But how can suppliers ensure that they source renewable electricity correctly and, most importantly, in a way that is efficient and cost-effective for them?

In this article, we have compiled our recommendations for companies that source Energy Attribute Certificates (EACs) to cover their clients’ Scope 3 electricity consumption, to help you make the most of the transition to renewables.
