“Move from 100 active buyers to 100,000”
#100to100k
The potential for corporate sourcing of renewable energy in Europe is significant and largely untapped.
Who we are:
The RE-Source Platform was founded in Brussels in June 2017 as an alliance of stakeholders representing clean energy buyers and suppliers. The Platform pools resources and coordinates activities to promote a better framework for corporate renewable energy sourcing at EU and national level. With decisions made by the founding members and consultations taken from the Steering Committee, the Platform is designed to allow maximum cooperation and communication between renewable energy buyers and sellers and helps to realise the full potential of renewable electricity sourcing in Europe. The RE-Source team aims to increase the number of active corporates using renewable energy sourcing from 100 to 100,000! #100to100k
What we do:
RE-Source Platform pushes for the removal of regulatory and administrative barriers to corporate renewable energy procurement in Europe in support of the EU's climate and energy goals. The Platform provides a wealth of free information and resources on corporate energy sourcing, including an annual event which brings together both buyers and sellers from across Europe.
The corporate sourcing market in Europe has taken off over the last few years, with, the corporate renewable Power Purchase Agreement (“PPA”) market in Europe growing to a cumulative capacity of over 6 GW. Corporate electricity buyers, renewable energy suppliers and policy-makers have a unique opportunity to work together to help Europe achieve its climate and energy objectives by enabling new, competitively-priced renewable energy resources at a scale not otherwise achievable. RE-Source Platform is prepared to continue leading by example and accelerate the transition to a smarter, more sustainable and more inclusive European energy system.
“We believe corporate electricity buyers, renewable energy suppliers and policy-makers have a unique opportunity to work together to help Europe achieve its climate and energy objectives by enabling new, competitively-priced renewable energy resources at a scale not otherwise achievable.”
– from the RE-Source Declaration
The platform pools resources and coordinates activities of all partners to promote a better framework for corporate renewable energy sourcing, at EU and national level.
