Net Zero Energy

To Put It Simply, Net Zero Means That Any Carbon Emissions Created Are Balanced (Cancelled Out) By The Amount Taken Out Of The Atmosphere.

In 2019, The UK Government Became The First Major Economy To Pass A Net Zero Emissions Law And Within This A Target That Will Require The UK To Bring All Greenhouse Gas Emissions To Net Zero By 2050.

Gross Net Zero Energy, Also Referred To As Gross Zero Carbon, Real Zero Carbon Or True Zero Carbon, Is When A Company Or Industry ‘Has Completely Eliminated Carbon Emissions’ From Their Operations. Energy Providers Could Get Very Close To Gross Zero Carbon With Renewable Energy. The National Grid Is Striving To Reach Zero Carbon In Real Terms Rather Than Relying On Carbon Offsetting Projects And Initiatives.

Carbon Offsetting Is The Process That Involved The Removal Or Reduction Of Carbon Dioxide And Other Greenhouses Gases From The Atmosphere In Order To Compensate For Emissions Made Elsewhere.

This General Involves A Company, Or Energy Supplier, Paying To Support Other Entities To Reduce Their Carbon Emissions That They Can’t Reduce Themselves.

Some Of The Projects That Dyce Energy And Our Selected Supplier Support With Carbon Offsetting Include The Amazon Reforestation Project, The Samsun Landfill Project In Turkey With Converts Harmful Gases Into Sustainable Electricity And More.

As Mentioned In The Above Point Dyce Energy And Our Selected Supplier Support Several Carbon Projects Through Our Renewable Electricity And Carbon Neutral Gas Tariffs.

When Looking At These Projects They Are Designed To Help Reduce Future Emissions As Well As Help Soak Up Carbon Dioxide From The Air. They Can Be Categories Into 3 Types:

Nature Based: This Is Where Emissions Are Avoided Or Removed By Nature-Based Solutions Such As Forest Preservation And Restoration.

Clean Energy Solutions: The Development Of New Renewable Energy Projects/Generators, Energy Efficiency Measures And The Deployment Of Low Carbon Alternatives To Fossil Fuels. An Example Of This Would Be In Sumatra, Indonesia Where On The Musi River A Hydroelectricity Plant Has Been Built Supplying Clean Sustainable Energy To Over 700,000 Indonesians.

Technological Solutions: New Technologies Such As Direct Air Capture (DAC), Captures And Stores The Carbon In The Atmosphere. However, These Are Still Developing And Have Yet To Be Deployed At Scale.

A REGO, Called A Renewable Energy Guarantee Of Origin, Is A Certificate That Shows The Electricity You Have Been Supplied With Was Generated From Renewable Sources.

An RGGO (Renewable Gas Guarantee Of Origin) Is A Certificate That Proves A Specific Amount Of Gas Has Been Produced From Renewable Sources. It Ensures Transparency In The Energy Market By Verifying That The Gas Supplied Is Genuinely Green. RGGOs Work Similarly To REGOs (Renewable Energy Guarantee Of Origin) Certificates In Electricity, Helping Businesses And Consumers Track And Support Renewable Gas Usage.
