CertaLink Energy Certification
A fast and easy way to verify the energy origin of low and zero emission productsHow CertaLink certification can help you
As energy transition progresses step-by-step, the global demand for sustainable industrial manufacturing has never been higher. Companies need to demonstrate reductions in greenhouse gas emissions or verify the volume of CO2 emissions in their products. In addition, there is a growing demand to prove the sustainability of green products like sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), synthetic fuels, green steel, and other commodities.
With CertaLink Energy Certification, we can track the environmental impact of sustainable production processes along the entire product cycle.

Haru Oni – discover certified e-fuel from wind and water
CertaLink Energy Certification is already proving the green origin of the e-fuels applications in the Porsche motorsport fleet at Haru Oni. Step by step, Haru Oni is transforming the fuel industry, supported by the certification process to validate the green origins of e-fuels.
How does CertaLink Energy Certification work
Developed with innovation partners TÜV SÜD and the German Energy Agency (dena), CertaLink Energy Certification uses blockchain technology to connect physical assets to digital decentralized infrastructure. It tracks the low and zero carbon energy from source to consumption along the value chain, validating the energy's origin plus providing detailed insights and attributes. As a result of automated and tamper-proof recording and tracking of energy-specific data, a CertaLink certificate is valid around the world through the entire low or zero carbon value chain.
