Buy electricity with certified carbon offsets

Carbon offsetting is an accepted way of reducing greenhouse emissions. When you buy an offset product on Powershop, you can buy from a supplier who will retire verified, certified carbon offsets on your behalf. These will be retired on registries like TZ1 or myclimate.

Some products boast more stringent standards...

All carbon offset products in Powershop are certified and verified to internationally accepted standards. However, only the most stringent can be used directly in third party certification programmes such as CarboNZero™. Offsets promote the development of renewable energy, energy efficiency and forestry here and around the world, delivering measurable reductions in greenhouse gas emissions.
