REGO basics

What are UK REGOs?

Renewable Energy Guarantees of Origin are UK certificates that show electricity has been generated from eligible renewable sources. Ofgem issues one REGO per MWh of eligible renewable output.

The primary UK use of REGOs is Fuel Mix Disclosure, where licensed electricity suppliers disclose the fuel mix of the electricity they supply. REGOs may also appear in sustainability disclosure and carbon accounting discussions, depending on the applicable guidance and intended claim.

UK REGOs and EU Guarantees of Origin should not be treated as interchangeable for disclosure. The EU no longer recognises UK REGOs from January 1, 2021, and Ofgem states that GoOs are no longer recognised for GB FMD, FIT annual levelisation, or CfD from the disclosure period beginning April 1, 2023.
