When you choose one of our renewable electricity plans, your annual electricity consumption is matched with Renewable Energy Guarantees of Origin (REGOs) issued by Ofgem from SSE's own wind, hydro and solar generation.
Our renewable electricity plans are also verified by independent climate consultancy SE Advisory Services, giving you confidence that your renewable electricity purchase is backed by traceable renewable generation and independently verified processes.
Which renewable electricity option is right for you?
Choose a fixed energy-price plan for budget certainty and simplicity. Renewable electricity comes as standard.
If you use ≥100,000 kWh each year, choose a fixed-price plan with renewable electricity as standard or add it to a flexible plan.
Upgrade to SSE Next Generation to link your electricity use with a named SSE wind, hydro or solar asset.
Available for larger energy users (≥ 10GWh per year) on flexible plans, a CPPA can provide greater price certainty and enhanced traceability.

Choosing renewable electricity is about more than buying a greener energy plan. It's also about supporting the investment needed to grow Britain's renewable electricity system. When you partner with us for renewable energy, you’re joining a mission to lead Britain’s clean energy transition.
SSE is at the forefront of renewable electricity development, from century-long roots in hydropower to its newest solar farm added to the grid. Today, we’re working with partners to deliver some of the most significant renewable projects in the world, including Dogger Bank and Berwick Bank offshore wind farms.
And that’s just the beginning. The SSE Group is investing £33 billion by 2027 in low-carbon infrastructure, building wind farms, upgrading networks and innovating in energy storage. Join us to join the mission for cleaner, safer, homegrown energy.
When you choose a renewable electricity plan from SSE Energy Solutions, your power still comes from the national grid, which carries electricity from a mix of sources.
What’s different is your usage is matched annually to renewable energy added to the grid from SSE’s own hydro, solar and wind farms, here in Britain.
We prove this through Renewable Energy Guarantees of Origin (REGO) certificates, which are official certificates issued by Ofgem for each MWh of power generated from renewable sources. In addition, all our renewable plans are independently verified each year for transparency, giving you confidence that your contract genuinely supports renewable generation. Now that’s a different kind of energy.
