About Matched
Enhancing the transparency of renewable energy claims
Matched enhances the transparency of renewable electricity claims. Many suppliers market their power as '100% renewable', but all still rely on fossil-fuels to some extent. Using publicly available, half-hourly data we track the renewable content of the electricity that UK energy suppliers actually sell.
As an independent, open-source initiative we collaborate with suppliers and industry experts to establish detailed, verifiable benchmarks. We bring clarity to renewable energy claims by making the numbers transparent, empowering customers, and supporting suppliers driving deep decarbonisation of power.
Matched is independent, not-for-profit, and funded by philanthropic grants.
