Definition
An electricity plan from a utility or energy supplier that provides electricity from renewable sources, such as wind or solar. The supplier usually backs the plan with energy attribute certificates on the customer’s behalf, so the company can count that electricity as renewable in its market-based Scope 2 emissions. A green tariff is one of the simplest ways for a company to buy renewable electricity.
In Practice
“My company moved our offices to our supplier’s green tariff, so the electricity we use now comes from renewable sources.”
