Reel Energy and Granular Energy have been able to test in a sandbox environment the upcoming new hourly GO system in Denmark developed by Energinet. The pilot demonstrates how real-time renewable energy reporting enhances transparency and accuracy in reflecting the grid’s real-time activity, enabling greater flexibility in clean energy procurement.
Key takeaways:
- The pilot demonstrates that Granular Guarantees of Origin (GGOs) enable precise, real-time documentation of renewable energy use by certifying when and where clean electricity was produced and consumed.
- The pilot demonstrates interest for the implementation of this system to optionally replace traditional GOs in Denmark.
- By matching five Danish companies, including GENAN A/S and Baettr Lem A/S, on an hourly, weekly, and monthly basis, the pilot shows how GGOs support detailed Scope 2 emissions reporting, and align with Greenhouse Gas Protocol updates.
Next steps:
- Implement this system in production to issue GGO (as an opt-in) instead of traditional GOs.
