GRANULAR MARKETPLACE
Why Granular Matters
Today’s sustainability leaders need more than annual RECs to meet their carbon goals. Traditional REC markets don’t account for when or where clean energy is generated.
The result? Missed opportunities for emissions reductions and compliance risk in Scope 2 reporting.
​
At Clean Incentive, we built the Granular Marketplace to solve this—offering real-time, impact-aligned procurement that empowers companies to match energy consumption with carbon-free energy hour by hour.
