Good Energy’s 2016 Progress Report provides an account of how they think they’re doing as an ethical and sustainable business. It includes a snapshot of their energy provision and where it comes from, how they’re shrinking their own carbon footprint and how they work with customers, staff, neighbours and other partners towards a 100% renewable future.

Good Energy is a renewable energy company with a difference. Founded in 1999, Good Energy’s mission is to transform the UK energy market by helping homes and businesses to be part of a sustainable solution to climate change.

Based in Chippenham, Wiltshire, Good Energy now supply 100% renewable electricity to over 70,000 customers. Around three quarters of GE's annual customer demand is met by the power they buy from a network of independent renewable generators across the UK with the remainder coming from their own two wind farms and seven solar farms. In 2016, GE launched a new Green Gas product, made up of at least 6% British biomethane with carbon emissions from from its use by customers balanced through carbon-saving projects that support local communities in Malawi, Vietnam and Nepal.

But Good Energy is about more that generating and supplying green energy. GE have always worked to have a positive impact in everything they do. From the purchasing of the office supplies used in day-to-day work, to award-winning customer service, to investment in the local communities around generation sites: Good Energy want to show how business can be a force for good.

Among other things, it provides a snapshot of their energy and where it comes from, how they’re shrinking their own carbon footprint and how they work with customers, staff, neighbours and partners towards a 100% renewable future.
