Good Energy was founded over a decade ago with one clear goal – to make a difference to climate change. And we are as true to that today as we were when we started out.

Reliant on the burning of fossil fuels, the way society currently generates energy releases huge amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. This makes it a major contributor to climate change. Good Energy wanted to offer people the opportunity to make a better choice – 100% renewable electricity from a company dedicated to changing the energy industry. For good.

Over time other energy companies have followed our lead and all now offer their own ‘green’ tariffs. But the truth of the matter is evident in the table below. We are still the UK's only zero carbon supplier, sourcing all of our electricity from renewables.

This commitment to developing renewables underpins all our work, and defines our purpose. Supplying 100% renewable electricity is just part of what we do. We are a small company with a big ambition. If every energy company looked like Good Energy, the industry would be fit for generations to come. We want the UK to achieve a future that is powered purely by renewables – and doing this means turning the energy market upside down.

Over the past twelve years Good Energy has been the catalyst for significant change in UK energy. Incentives for microgenerators, easier grid connections, and certification for green tariffs have all been good steps forward. But there’s still much to do: it involves changes at every stage of the energy process, from windy hill top to a finger on a light switch. But with innovative thinking, determination and support from like-minded people we believe a green energy future is possible. And we're not alone - our own work is part of a growing body of research showing that a zero carbon future for UK energy is possible.

Building a better energy future. Together.
