Getting into Granular detail, using data to drive change
npower Business Solutions has teamed up with Granular Energy to give businesses full visibility on where and when their renewable energy is generated — helping them on their journey to becoming greener, cleaner, and closer to net zero.
Forget business as usual. Today’s companies aren’t just chasing profits, they’re chasing a greener future. npower Business Solutions (nBS) is pushing the boundaries of renewable energy innovation by partnering with Granular Energy to offer an innovative solution: renewable energy matching.
But what exactly does that mean? Renewable energy matching allows businesses to track and match their energy consumption directly to renewable generation at any given moment. Companies can see exactly where and when their green energy is generated — giving them total transparency on their journey to net zero.
Understanding renewable energy matching
Traditionally, companies could only confirm that their energy came from renewable sources over a broad timeframe — often a month or even a year. Renewable energy matching enables businesses to go much deeper. Through this new service, they can match the energy they use to specific renewable generation, such as wind or solar, down to the hour.
This service doesn’t just boost transparency, it empowers businesses to really own their sustainability efforts. And as companies take control of their decarbonisation goals, renewable energy matching plays a key role in reporting Scope 2 emissions with precision.
Data-driven decarbonisation
Data drives the future of energy, and renewable sources are no exception. Through this partnership, npower Business Solutions equips businesses with the insights needed to accelerate their green energy efforts and lead the charge toward sustainability.
Businesses receive annual reports that break down energy consumption by source, whether wind, solar, or hydro, allowing them to see precisely how much of their energy use is matched to specific renewable assets. The data also highlights the carbon savings from using renewables instead of local grid sources, making sustainability strategies not just easier but smarter.
This transparency simplifies reporting and also empowers businesses to actively shape their energy strategies. By optimising their energy consumption for times when renewable energy is most available, companies can reduce their carbon footprints and drive meaningful progress towards their decarbonisation goals.
As we move towards a carbon-free grid, digital innovation in energy solutions is becoming essential, and this partnership marks a significant step forward in providing businesses with greater insight into their energy usage.
