Soldera cares for renewable energy producers

Physical electricity all looks identical in the grid, but renewable energy transactions happen through separate certificate markets that many newcomers find confusing. Understanding when to bundle certificates with electricity versus buying them separately could dramatically impact your procurement costs and compliance strategy. Learn why this market separation exists and which approach fits your energy needs.

Physical and virtual Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) shape how energy gets bought and sold, but they work in fundamentally different ways. Understanding the mechanics behind strike prices, basis risk, and settlement structures could save you from costly mistakes in energy procurement. Learn why renewable certificates are essential to both contract types.

Quality labels in Europe's GO system add depth to renewable energy certifications. Discover how these specialized markers indicate higher standards, from additionality requirements to ecological commitments, and learn why they command premium prices in the European energy certificate marketplace.

Navigating the international Guarantee of Origin (GO) & Renewable Energy Certificate (REC) market is far from simple. Fragmented systems, inconsistent protocols, and regional quirks make certificate management an administrative burden for energy producers, traders, and buyers alike. This article explores the structural challenges in Europe’s renewable energy certification ecosystem, explaining why an integrated solution is needed. Oh, and as a bonus, we included a highly detailed map graphic to clarify the landscape.

GO/REC markets involve three distinct players beyond the basic certificate lifecycle. Each has unique roles that add complexity to renewable energy trading. Understanding these players helps navigate the market confidently.

The global renewable energy market is at a turning point, with RE100 shaping corporate procurement standards.

Despite Trump's rapid Paris Agreement withdrawal and energy emergency declaration, market dynamics point to resilience in the climate transition. Tech leaders from Microsoft to Google are doubling down on renewable commitments, while state-level policies and the Inflation Reduction Act's economic impact in swing states create powerful counterweights. Energy sovereignty concerns, falling renewable costs, and growing corporate demand for clean energy certificates suggest this federal pivot may struggle to significantly derail progress. With global momentum and market forces aligned behind the energy transition, the path forward remains challenging but hopeful.

The Guarantees of Origin (GO) market offers significant profit potential through strategic volume sales and timing. Fresh GOs command premium prices and must be sold within 12 months, making regular sales crucial for maximizing returns.

EU's Guarantees of Origin market is projected to hit €24 billion by 2030, powered by new regulations and corporate sustainability goals.

With 50,000 companies facing mandatory sustainability reporting and rising demand from AI and data centers, GOs are becoming essential rather than optional.

The market for guarantees of origin (GO) for electricity may seem complicated. Unlike many other markets where prices are fully transparent – visible to all, harmonised, and straightforward – the GOs market operates mainly on the basis of private bidding transactions. Renewable energy producers themselves must look for potential buyers and study their interest and the prices they offer. Soldera offers a more straightforward solution for selling GOs, but more about it at the end of the post. Now, on to the price of guarantees of origin.

With increasing environmental awareness and increasing demand for green energy, European renewable energy producers have found themselves in a unique position. It is possible for them not only to sell electricity, but also to receive recognition and additional income through Guarantees of Origin. Despite additional revenue being on the table, a large part of renewable energy producers do not take advantage of this option. This is even more perplexing since there are simple solutions on the market, such as Soldera, that make it easier than selling electricity.
