Our green energy has now been certified as Vegan by The Vegan Society and Viva! for five years!
To celebrate, our very own Angus, who works in the Marketing team, has made a very special vegan cake. Trust us - it’s delicious!
What is vegan energy?
Simply put, vegan energy is energy produced without involving animals. Solar, wind and geothermal power all produce green electricity without using animals but gas can be more problematic.
Anaerobic digestion of green matter – certified by The Vegan Society and Viva! – is a genuinely green, vegan way to make biogas. This can be used to create electricity or further treated to make biomethane, which can be used as household gas. It’s what we’ll be doing in our new green gas mills.
What’s the difference between green energy and vegan energy?
The big problem comes when energy companies add animal by-products (silage, manure, etc) from the livestock factory farming industry to the mix. It’s still green, theoretically, but it isn’t vegan and it isn’t right.
About Us
Green electricity didn't exist in the world back in 1996. When we offered it for the first time, we became not just Britain’s but the world’s first green electricity company – and we kick-started the now global green electricity movement. Our mission was and remains to change the way electricity is made and used in Britain.
We chose this focus because conventional electricity is responsible for 30% of Britain’s carbon emissions – it’s our biggest single source as a nation, and therefore the biggest single thing we can change.
