Berkhamsted is a family of leading independent schools based in Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire, offering high quality education and care for boys and girls aged 5 months to 18 years.
Berkhamsted’s aim was to minimise their energy costs which have been rising year on year. However,
they also wanted to switch to zero carbon energy to help tackle climate change.
Beond ran a Zero Carbon Market online auction for Berkhamsted’s zero carbon energy requirement.
16 energy suppliers participated in the online auctions, offering a mix of zero carbon energy offers including renewable electricity using REGO offsets, nuclear energy and gas fossil fuel energy with carbon credit offsets.
After reviewing the range of zero carbon energy offers and their price differences, Berkhamsted selected Positive Energy and Bryt Energy for their renewable electricity supplies supported by REGO certificates and Total Gas & Power for their gas. Beond used their Zero Carbon Project to neutralise the carbon offsets from Berkhamsted’s gas supply by purchasing and surrendering UN certified carbon permits, at no additional cost to Berkhamsted.
