How sustainable is Green Energy UK?

Green Energy UK, as mentioned earlier, has been considered one of the most environmentally friendly energy suppliers in the UK for around two decades at this point. With sustainability becoming a very marketable attribute among suppliers in the UK energy sector, how can we be sure that Green Energy UK is as environmentally friendly as they claim to be?

Sustainability Certifications

Green Energy UK is the recipient of several awards and has even been certified by Ofgem, the governing body of the UK energy industry, to provide 100% renewable energy. Additional certifications that GEUK possesses are a REGO (Renewable Energy Guarantees Origin) for their electricity supplied to customers, and an RGGO (Renewable Gas Guarantees of Origin) for all of their gas supplied to customers. These additional certificates allow customers to track the energy that they are using back to its source if they choose to do so and identify the source of renewable energy.

However, as green energy demand grows so must its production, which has the potential to encroach on wildlife and even destroy habitats, for instance, wind farms being developed in marine and in the country can have major impacts on local ecosystems that are often overlooked. Acknowledging this, Green Energy UK produced a new tariff called EKO Energy, which has been independently certified to only source power that has been generated in locations that protect bird & marine migrations, as well as wildlife habitats.

Is GEUK any good?

Despite the energy market in the UK being hyper-competitive in the early 2000s before any meaningful regulation was put in place, Green Energy UK, or GEUK, emerged as a strong contender in the industry. Their vision for sustainable energy was something that was clearly resonating with many consumers, which has helped GEUK to remain competitive even today despite facing off with competitors like the UK’s “Big 6” energy UK.

Even though we will take a deeper look at the customer reviews of GEUK later on in this article, the general consensus is quite positive. On Trustpilot, GUK sits at 4.5/5 stars based on nearly 1,000 reviews, putting them in the excellent category above a number of notable competitors.

A majority of the positive reviews made about Green Energy UK revolved around the same topics: their commitment towards sustainability, quality customer service, and their quick reactions to customer complaints.

The general consensus is that Green Energy UK holds true on their first goals from 2001, to provide the greenest energy possible and excellent customer service.

Is GEUK bad?

The few bad reviews that Green Energy UK does have were clearly written by customers that were sincerely agitated. Their reasons for frustration ranged quite a bit, but overall it seemed like the most common issue was incorrect billing/quotes. Several customers alleged that they were receiving a higher bill each month than they were quoted beforehand, claiming that GEUK was overcharging and taking advantage of them.

While overall the majority of the reviews are positive, there are still energy consumers that have had very negative experiences with this provider, which may be something to carefully consider before you switch suppliers.

FAQ

Is Green Energy UK cheap?

Green Energy UK is a premier energy provider in the UK, meaning that their services and products are considered very high quality. As a result, their prices may reflect that and be more expensive than some of the bargain oriented energy suppliers.

However, because of their TIDE tariff's structure, customers have a little extra control of their energy consumption and as a result may actually save on energy costs.

Who owns Green Energy UK?

Green Energy UK is owned by Doug Stewart, who also has served as their CEO since they were founded in 2021. However, in the past Green Energy UK did offer free shares to their customers , many of which remain shareholders to this day and are welcomed to attend GEUK's annual general meeting.
