Core offering

Energy Peace Partners issues Peace Renewable Energy Credits (P-RECs), a proprietary quality label affixed to I-RECs sourced from renewable energy mini-grids in fragile, energy-poor countries. Each P-REC represents 1 MWh of verified renewable generation with verified additionality (new community infrastructure such as streetlights, schools, and health centers). The organization also operates the $11.3M P-REC Aggregation Facility in partnership with Camco Clean Energy, which provides upfront capital to mini-grid developers in exchange for future P-REC rights, alongside the Powering Peace initiative for clean energy-based conflict resolution.
