What is a Guarantee of Origin (GOO)?
GOOs are created when renewable energy is generated. A GOO is documentary evidence or a certificate that proves where sustainably generated energy originated. The certificates are part of a European certification system, ensuring transparency and credibility.
A GOO represents 1 MWh (1.000 kWh) of green electricity and provides detailed information about the location, time and source of the energy generation.
