European Jewellery Brand Powers its Asian Factory with 100% Renewable Energy

The Customer

A Europe-based jewellery brand known for ethical production, sustainable sourcing, and full climate transparency. As the brand expanded, so did its responsibility to decarbonize operations — particularly in its Asian manufacturing supply chain.

The Challenge

The factory operated in a region with a fossil-heavy electricity grid and no direct access to renewable energy. The brand sought more than a symbolic environmental claim — they wanted a high-impact Scope 2 solution that would:

• ✅ Prioritize high-additionality, high impact projects
• ✅ Match the factory’s location or regional grid
• ✅ Leverage efficient, proven renewable technologies
• ✅ Enable multi-year procurement to hedge against market volatility
•  

The Solution

GreenPowerHub connected to its global supplier network, sourcing I-REC projects aligned with their impact goals and obtained the most cost competitive offers. All shortlisted projects were assessed based on renewable technology, additionality and impact, grid relevance and geographic proximity.

The brand selected a newly built wind project located near their factory — delivering real environmental value and strong narrative alignment.

Key Results

• ✅ 100% Scope 2 emissions covered with certified renewable energy
• ✅ Impact-first strategy communicated clearly to customers and partners
• ✅ Demonstrable supply chain decarbonization, ESG-aligned and future-proof
• ✅ Multi-year energy certificate procurement secured to manage price risk
•  

“We didn’t just want to tick the renewable box — we wanted to act where it mattered and make impact.”
