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 from January 2026:

  • Sourced from 100% renewable sources.
  • From power plants that do not receive ongoing governmental support or are eligible under mainstream subsidy schemes. 
  • From generators with no significant financial involvement in nuclear, coal or non-hydrogen-ready gas power plants (per OK Power ownership criteria).

Elective criteria (optional, for additional contribution): To demonstrate support for new capacity, certificates may be sourced from plants below certain commissioning age thresholds — e.g.,  Hydropower: 8 years, Wind power: 4 years, Photovoltaics: 5 years, Biomass: 4 years, Geothermal: 8 years or extended via PPA financing terms.
