100Green: A leading light in sustainable energy in the UK

We are thrilled to announce that 100Green has become the latest company to achieve The Good Shopping Guide’s prestigious Ethical Accreditation membership. Following a thorough assessment of the company’s policies and business practices, 100Green achieved an outstanding GSG score of 100 in the Energy Suppliers Ethical Comparison Table, which places the company amongst the highest scoring energy companies in the UK. This includes a top rating in the Energy Mix criterion, which is only awarded to companies offering a 100% renewable energy supply.

At a time where the need for countries, businesses and consumers to reduce their carbon footprint is at an all-time high, 100Green’s dedication to providing eco-friendly energy solutions couldn’t be more important. The company’s EKO tariff, which provides 100% renewable electricity and green gas, is certified by the non-profit eco-label organisation, EKOenergy, for not only being 100% green but also for having met strict sustainability criteria. It also offers two other tariffs – its standard Sparkling tariff and its time-of-use tariff, Tide, ideally suited for people with storage batteries and/or Electric Vehicles. With a firm commitment to environmental sustainability and ethical business practices, 100Green is revolutionising the energy sector with its innovative approach to green gas and electricity supply, solidifying its position as a pioneer in the field of sustainable energy in the UK.

Notably, 100Green is the only supplier of 100% green gas in the UK, a significant milestone in the country’s journey towards achieving a Net Zero future. The gas is fully sourced through anaerobic digestion – a process where bacteria break down organic matter, creating biomethane. 100Green’s gas does not require any carbon offsetting to qualify as carbon neutral, so purchasing green gas immediately comes with a lower carbon footprint.

Moreover, 100Green’s comprehensive sustainability initiatives extend beyond its green energy supply. The company has implemented rigorous measures to reduce its carbon footprint, promoting energy efficiency and minimising waste across its operations. For instance, all 100Green company cars are electric and charging facilities are available at its offices. This holistic approach demonstrates the company’s commitment to being an environmentally responsible energy company throughout all aspects of its business practices.

As we continue to champion businesses that prioritise ethical and sustainable practices, we are proud to welcome 100Green into The Good Shopping Guide’s community of Ethical Accreditation members. The accreditation serves as a testament to the company’s unwavering dedication to sustainability and ethical principles, setting a precedent for other companies in the Energy sector. We look forward to seeing 100Green’s future achievements in facilitating the UK’s transition to green energy and setting standards for environmental responsibility amongst energy suppliers.
