What is Hourly Matching Credit? 

Hourly Matching Credit is a no-cost, opt-in scheme from Good Energy designed to reward renewable generators and help businesses cut their energy costs, all while supporting a cleaner grid. 

For over 25 years, Good Energy has connected small-scale renewable generators with UK businesses to create a more sustainable, transparent energy system. Hourly Matching Credit is the next step in that journey. 

How does Hourly Matching Credit work? 

Every half-hour, we match the electricity used by eligible business customers with electricity generated by renewable generators in the scheme. When the power matches, customers share the savings from reduced third party charges. Here’s how:  

  • Earn credits when generation matches consumption 
    When generation matches consumption, you earn a share of the savings from reduced third-party charges. 
  • More matching = more rewards 
    The closer the match, the greater the savings for supply customers, and earnings for generators  
  • No changes to your current tariff 
    Your energy contract stays the same, and there is no cost to join the scheme.
