Introducing “About Time”: Our New Global Dashboard for Round-The-Clock Clean Power
đź“Ś Looking for the official platform? This article provides context on our latest initiative. To access the live tool, visit the About Time Page.
The momentum for hourly matching and around-the-clock clean power is growing. What was once a theory is now becoming a global reality.Â
However, not everyone knows this. Whether it was a corporate procurement deal, an international regulation, or an academic feasibility study, the information was tucked away in spreadsheets, reports, and fragmented announcements. At EnergyTag, we became a central hub for this growing body of knowledge. But we knew that to accelerate the transition, the data needed to be visible, interactive, and accessible to everyone.
That is why today we’ve launched the new AboutTime tool – a living, crowdsourced dashboard tracking the global momentum for hourly matching and round-the-clock clean power, all in one place. Most importantly, it gives you real-world examples of contracts, case studies and companies doing this now.
Why “About Time”?
The name carries a dual mandate for the energy transition:
- It’s About Time we think about time: It is time we replace outdated annual averages with reality-based, transparent hourly accounting.
- It’s About Time we take immediate action: It is time we fix broken carbon accounting systems and modernize grids to drive clean power round-the-clock, globally.
A Living, Crowdsourced Dashboard
About Time is not a static report. It is an interactive visual dashboard that brings together clean energy policies, corporate procurement deals, suppliers, real-world case studies and more.
It is built to grow as the momentum for hourly matching and round-the-clock clean power continues to expand. Action drives action, and we want the entire energy community to help grow this evidence base.
Who is this for?
About Time is for everyone tracking or interested in the global shift to around-the-clock clean power.
- For Policymakers: The platform equips you with empirical evidence that round-the-clock clean power is the way forward. It gives you examples of policies that have already successfully adopted this approach. Â
- For Businesses: Action inspires action. The dashboard shows businesses exactly how other businesses, big and small, are already successfully ditching volatile fossil fuels for secure, competitive energy. It shows businesses are doing so, not just to comply with regulations and standards, but because it makes good business sense not to rely on volatile fossil fuels.
- For Academics & Researchers: The dashboard equips you with a centralized, living repository of active research, real-world case studies, and corporate agreements.Â
- For Energy Suppliers & Utilities: It gives you real-world examples of how your peers are successfully structuring hourly tariffs and tracking products to meet a rapidly growing market demand.
- For Climate Advocates & Advisors: The dashboard gives the visual data and verified contracts required to advocate for robust carbon accounting frameworks. It serves as an evidence base to prove that moving beyond annual averages is practical, feasible, and necessary to drive deep decarbonization today
How to use the tool today:
- Explore the Map: Visualize the global shift to round-the-clock clean energy. See how the momentum is growing with concepts becoming reality.Â
- Contribute Data: Submit missing regulatory updates or new corporate procurement deals directly. Use our online form to keep the dashboard growing.
Our end goal is an electricity sector powered around the clock by clean energy that is secure, cheaper, and completely free from reliance on volatile fossil fuels.
