Renewable Electricity in the United Kingdom
Make your switch to clean, affordable power simple. Energy Plus helps UK homes and businesses source 100% renewable electricity, reduce carbon, and control costs — with clear guidance at every step.
What is renewable electricity?
Renewable electricity comes from natural sources that are replenished faster than they are consumed. In the UK, most renewable power is produced by wind, solar, hydro, and bioenergy. Choosing a renewable tariff helps decarbonise the grid, supports new green generation, and demonstrates your commitment to sustainability.
UK-backed green supply
Energy Plus connects you to tariffs backed by REGO certificates (Renewable Energy Guarantees of Origin), evidencing that electricity supplied to you is matched annually with UK or European renewable generation.
Cut carbon, not confidence
We compare a wide panel of suppliers to find competitive green tariffs, clear terms, and reliable service — so sustainability doesn’t mean uncertainty.
For homes and businesses
Whether you manage a single site, a multi-location portfolio, or your family home, we tailor options to your usage profile and budget.
How renewable tariffs work in the UK
- REGO matching: Suppliers purchase REGOs to match your annual consumption with renewable generation from wind, solar, hydro, or bioenergy.
- Fuel mix disclosure: Each supplier publishes its fuel mix, letting you verify the share of renewables used to match customers’ usage.
- Carbon reporting: Many businesses use REGO-backed electricity to report market-based Scope 2 emissions as zero, aligned to established reporting frameworks.
Energy Plus can also explore enhanced options such as time-correlated matching, UK-only procurement, or Corporate Power Purchase Agreements (CPPAs) for larger consumers seeking stronger additionality.

Frequently asked questions
Not necessarily. Pricing depends on wholesale markets, contract length, and your load profile. Many REGO-backed tariffs are comparable to standard supply, and long-term strategies like CPPAs or on-site solar can lower costs over time.
Suppliers use REGOs to evidence renewable matching. We can provide supplier documentation and fuel mix data for your records and ESG reporting.
Yes. We support microbusinesses through to large industrial sites. We’ll recommend the most suitable renewable tariffs for your usage and budget.
No. Standard supplier switches are administrative and happen without any interruption to your electricity supply.
Some customers prefer UK-generated certificates for local impact. Others are happy with European REGOs to broaden options. We’ll source what aligns with your sustainability policy.
