At REDEX, a One-stop Solution for #RECs (Renewable Energy Certificates) also sometimes known as #EACs (Energy Attribute Certificates), we help both #SME & large #MNC to decarbonize within their Scope 2 #Safely and with #Ease. In Singapore and as most countries around the world, the Renewable Energy Sector is a #VoluntaryMarket and companies can choose to purchase RECs at their own discretionary that best fit their financial budget, report claims and sustainability goals. That is also where we come in to provide #Practical #Solutions for you. RECs stands out on its own to certify that a company is using #GreenEnergy from #RenewableSources rather than #BrownEnergy from #FossilFuels which can be #BadfortheEnvironment. It is an accounting tool to track and proof the amount of sustainability efforts a company is putting in to reduce their Scope 2 emissions to be reflected in Sustainability Reports. If you or your team have not started to look into RECs, I highly recommend you to start this conversation with us today!

Swedish wave energy technology firm CorPower Ocean has been given the largest investment in its technology to date, with funding of €32 million confirmed. The money is coming from an investor consortium including the Japanese backed venture capital firm NordicNinja VC, SEB Bank’s investment arm SEB Greentech, and InnoEnergy – a European cleantech investor. As well as other shareholders, the consortium includes Santander Asset Management, Iberis Capital and Cisco Investments. CorPower Ocean’s technology was installed at commercial scale for the first time just over a year ago. The CorPower C4 device was launched in the Portuguese port of Viana do Castello, before being towed to the Aguçadoura site 4km offshore. The device involves a composite buoy that interacts with wave motion and drives a ‘Power Take Off’ inside it, converting the mechanical energy into electricity. The devices can be installed side by side to form larger wave farms to gigawatt scale, the company says. “Today’s announcement follows breakthrough results reported earlier this year from the firm’s ocean demonstration at the Aguçadoura site in northern Portugal, where the CorPower C4 became the first commercial scale wave device to successfully demonstrate the ability to survive the biggest Atlantic storms combined with a large power generation capacity with respect to the size and cost of equipment,” said CorPower Ocean co-founder & CEO Patrik Möller. “This financing combined with the technology breakthrough recently reported delivers a firm message about wave energy’s readiness for widescale adoption and its key role in the global energy transition.” CorPower says its customers are developing projects using the technology along the Atlantic Arc, in Scotland, Ireland, Portugal and Norway.  “We believe wave energy is emerging as a transformative force in the renewable energy landscape, holding vast potential as a reliable and sustainable power source for the future,” said Iberis Capital Partner Diogo Chalbert Santos. “Harvestable and accessible wave energy resources in the world amount to 500GW, with availability and predictability way above wind and solar,” InnoEnergy CEO Diego Pavia.

Exciting news from MEC Lead Partner CorPower Ocean which today announced it has secured €32m of investment from a consortium including NordicNinja VC, SEB, EIT InnoEnergy, Santander Asset Management, Iberis Capital and Cisco Investments. Wave energy is an abundant renewable resource with a global potential to power the equivalent of 500 million homes annually. That potential is why the US is investing over $100m over the next 5-years to advance the commercial readiness of wave energy and China has enshrined large scale deployment in its current five year plan. Currently there is no route to market for the technology in the UK. The MEC is calling on the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero to introduce a £5m ringfence for wave energy in its next renewable auction to support green growth and its ambition to become a clean energy superpower. https://lnkd.in/ewxCGsby
