Compliant Renewable Sourcing for Water & Wastewater Operations
Soldera gives water utilities and treatment operators direct access to renewable certificate markets globally, retired against the verified baseload consumption of every site you operate.
Evidence renewable electricity for performance benchmarks, closing the gap between on-site generation and what your grid draw actually requires.
Trusted by 500+ corporations worldwide.

AI-matched renewable procurement for water infrastructure
Water and wastewater services carry some of the most constant and geographically dispersed energy loads in the public sector. From treatment works to pumping stations, Soldera's AI maps your network-level consumption data to the correct renewable energy certificate attributes for your regulatory framework, sources directly from renewable producers, and retires against verified usage across your entire asset portfolio.
EACs for Baseload Gap Coverage
Bridge the permitted external energy allowance for EU Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive energy neutrality obligations (35% permitted). On-site biogas recovery and rooftop solar reduce your grid draw but rarely eliminate it. For the remaining consumption that needs matching, EACs provide the only scalable, service-safe mechanism to achieve and document a fully renewable electricity position without capital-intensive battery storage.
Intelligent Scope 2 Reporting
Evidence the renewable portion of carbon-neutral operations for regulatory performance benchmarks and decarbonisation requirements. Generate the market-based Scope 2 documentation (CSRD, RE100, SBTi, and CDP disclosures) that regulators and price review frameworks expect as part of your operational carbon reporting obligations.
Sector Net Zero Commitments (UK)
Disclose market-based Scope 2 emissions for Carbon Reduction Plan requirements on major water infrastructure contracts, verify 100% renewable electricity use for Water UK Net Zero 2030 annual reporting, and achieve Climate Smart Utility status by matching continuous grid-pumping and aeration loads with valid <a href="https://www.soldera.org/certificates/renewable-energy-guarantees-of-origin-regos">REGOs</a>.
What are Energy Attribute Certificates (EACs)?
Energy Attribute Certificates (EACs) are market instruments that verify renewable electricity consumption for emissions reporting, investment disclosures, and government support schemes. Each certificate, such as RECs (North America), GOs (EU), REGOs (UK), or I-RECs (Global), represents 1 MWh of renewable generation and includes timestamped, auditable metadata.
Why do water utilities and wastewater operators procure EACs?
Water utility operators, infrastructure owners, and sewerage and drainage providers use Soldera as a single platform to procure renewable certificates and generate essential documentation for emissions reporting. Core use cases include:
Bridging the 35% external energy allowance permitted under EU Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive (UWWTD) energy neutrality requirements, where large treatment plants must evidence off-site renewable procurement toward their 2045 targets
Satisfying Carbon Reduction Plan (UK) requirements for major water infrastructure contract eligibility, where verified renewable electricity documentation forms part of the submission package for public sector procurement
Satisfying the ESG mandates and financing criteria of institutional-size investors and infrastructure funds financing water asset programmes
Verifying 100% renewable electricity use for Water UK Net Zero 2030 milestones
Compiling audit-grade documentation for CSRD, CDP, and science-based target reporting across multi-site water utility portfolios
"Water operators are managing essential infrastructure under growing compliance obligations, with limited flexibility to change how their assets run. Soldera removes the complexity surrounding renewable procurement, so compliance work doesn't eat into any more time than is absolutely necessary"
