这份报告探讨了中国不断演进的电力市场和政策环境，为电力交易、结算及溯源提供了实操性基础导览。随着中国向高比例可再生能源电力系统转型，本报告评估了转向全时段（RTC）清洁电力采购模式及精细化匹配（Granular Matching）的可行性与发展前景。
This report explores China’s evolving power market and policy landscape, providing a practical primer on how electricity is traded, settled, and tracked. It assesses the feasibility of transitioning toward round-the-clock (RTC) clean power procurement and granular matching as China moves toward a high-renewables power system.
EnergyTag has officially submitted our response to the European Commission to ensure the new data centre label drives real decarbonization and minimizes cost impacts. While the draft regulations make progress by requiring 15-minute matching within the same bidding zone, there are critical areas that must be addressed to genuinely drive decarbonization. It outlines policy amendments to remove granular GO conditionality, align PPA criteria with granularity rules and replace the grid functions flag with a flexibility metric.
This document is a formal response from EnergyTag advocating for the transition from single-technology Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) to “Hybrid PPAs” that combine wind, solar, and storage. It outlines policy recommendations to address market stagnation by using granular data and updated carbon accounting to better match renewable generation with hourly demand.
An updated hourly analysis of clean power penetration and prices tells the story of where we have come from, and where we need to focus to deliver clean, cheap power in Europe, around the clock.
This analysis compares the share of renewable generation in the UK grid with each supplier’s rating on the Matched Clean Power Index – showing how much of their customers’ demand was met by renewable generation, hour by hour.
This Guidebook is for the public consultation on the Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHGP) Scope 2 accounting standard update. It details proposed revisions to increase the integrity and accuracy of corporate clean energy claims, primarily by introducing requirements for hourly matching and stricter deliverable market boundaries for electricity emissions (the market-based method).
This Factbook provides a concise overview of granular electricity accounting and its role in advancing 24/7 carbon-free energy (CFE) across the Asia-Pacific region. It explains how hourly matching of clean electricity can enhance transparency, strengthen the credibility of clean energy claims, improve system efficiency, and help APAC industries comply with emerging global carbon reporting frameworks such as the GHG Protocol and trade-linked regulations like the EU CBAM. Covering twelve priority markets, the Factbook offers practical insights, policy signals, and case studies to empower stakeholders in shaping resilient and future-ready clean energy systems.
EnergyTag is proud to announce the first-ever official accreditation of two pioneering Granular Certificate (GC) schemes based on EnergyTag’s open-source standards. This marks a significant step forward in enabling transparent, hourly clean energy accounting worldwide and lays the foundation for the next generation of clean energy markets and carbon accounting frameworks.
Rédigé par Alexandre Joly (Carbone 4), Killian Daly (EnergyTag), et Bruno Menu (Granular Energy), ce document présente l’importance d’une traçabilité horaire de l’électricité verte pour accélérer la décarbonation en France. Actuellement, les garanties d’origine sont associées à la consommation de manière mensuelle, limitant leur impact réel. Le passage à un “matching horaire” renforcerait la précision de la comptabilité carbone, la confiance des consommateurs, et faciliterait la transition énergétique en adéquation avec les nouvelles régulations européennes.
India’s heavy reliance on fossil fuels has raised its share of global energy-related carbon emissions, highlighting the urgency for renewable energy in its decarbonization efforts. Granular electricity accounting can help enable this through real-time clean energy matching which enhances transparency. While a new concept, it builds on existing policies in India like the 15-minute block settlement system, FDRE and G-TAM. Addressing challenges and opportunities is crucial for effective implementation of granular electricity accounting in India.
This Starter Kit is intended for GO Issuing Bodies and legislative and regulatory authorities aiming to promote the adoption of Granular GOs within their country. Please note that while the issuance of Granular GOs is encouraged, their use for granular matching is not mandatory and remains at the discretion of the consumer, unless otherwise stipulated by the regulations of the consumer’s country.
