What is an I-REC?

I-RECs have become an easy way to offset your company’s carbon footprint based on your energy consumption without having to enter into a long-term agreement.

Renewable Energy Certificates, also known as I-RECs, are global certificates that prove the generation of energy through renewable sources.

I-REC Service is a global energy environmental attribute tracking system designed to facilitate reliable carbon accounting for companies, compatible with various international carbon accounting standards.

Each I-REC is equivalent to 1 MWh of energy and can neutralize the emission of scope 2 of the GHG Protocol.

The difference from REC Brazil

The Renewable Energy Certification Program “REC Brazil” is an initiative that aims to foster the market of energy generated from renewable sources and with high performance in terms of sustainability.

Managed by the Totum Institute

With the support of:

The objective of the program is to demonstrate the impact of the participating generators in terms of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The criterion for certification then serves as proof that the generator fosters at least five of the seventeen UN’s SDGs.

The process of a renewable energy credit in the electricity grid

I-RECs are perfect for any energy consumer

Any company from any industry can acquire I-RECs to offset its energy consumption. At Atlas, we offer I-REC certificates each year to all companies with operations in Brazil, and we also provide REC Brazil as an added value that certifies that the renewable energy generated by our projects complies with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals.

Why are companies buying
I-RECs?

Offsetting a company’s carbon footprint has never been easier and more affordable. Companies can now purchase 1 renewable energy certificate for each MWh consumed.

This transaction works in two ways: it brings companies closer to their sustainable goals and supports the addition of cleaner energy sources to the national grid.
