On the 21st of October 2024, Tolk Ukraine took part in the first ever auction for the purchase of Guarantees of Origin for electricity produced from renewable energy sources (GOOs). 

The guarantees of origin, which are transferred to the consumer and "redeemed" in the month of consumption, indicate that the purchased electricity is produced exclusively from renewable sources such as hydro, wind and solar. This underscores the environmental responsibility of both the energy supplier and its consumer, the Ukrainian producer, opening up additional opportunities for cooperation with European partners for whom the eco-component of the origin of goods is essential.

"Participation in the first auction with guarantees of origin is an important and definitely responsible step for our company, and an important milestone for the RES market participants. The Tolk Group is committed to providing our customers with not only high-quality but also environmentally friendly energy. The acquisition of such guarantees confirms our commitment to supporting sustainable development and Ukraine's commitment to reduce its carbon footprint and strengthen the image of our customers in international markets," said Iryna Beresneva, CEO of Tolk Ukraine.

The Tolk Group is systematically working to increase the share of green energy supplied to its customers. Thus, its portfolio has grown significantly in recent years.

Businesses that invest in the purchase of guarantees of origin of electricity will be able to use them within 18 months from the date of production in the relevant volumes. In addition to the benefits of building trust in their brand, companies that consume green energy gain additional competitive advantages, including access to international support programmes that encourage the use of renewable energy sources and grants for the development of green technologies.
