Stacked RECs
As a nonprofit provider of RECs, a portion of earned revenue from REC sales supports our many mission-based programs. By selecting a Stacked REC, you get to designate which specific program a portion of the revenue will go toward, and stack the benefits of offsetting with program impacts.

Building community, resilience, and energy independence on indigenous lands
Support tribal renewable energy projects through your REC purchase. Tribal renewable energy programs provide much needed energy independence, resilience, and reduced energy costs to tribal nations while also supporting hands-on workforce development and local STEM education.
Providing funding for tree planting partners up and down the West Coast
For every REC you purchase, you can also plant a tree! BEF has numerous partners along the West Coast of the USA planting trees for habitat restoration and recovery. This unique product will pair a tree planting with a Green-e® Energy certified wind or solar REC from our North American portfolio.
Save the orcas we all love
The Southern Resident orcas living along the West Coast are down to just 74 individuals. Restoring streams that feed into the Pacific, planting trees that benefit regional habitat, and engaging the next generation of orca caretakers will help these pods have the food and clean water they need to thrive.
Sunward – Building Community Energy Together
BEF’s Sunward program is dedicated to providing the economic and environmental benefits of renewable energy to low-income and tribal communities through community specific development support. We build partnerships that develop renewable energy projects and deliver wealth building, cost savings, and greater resilience to communities.
International RECs
Verification*
We are happy to source Energy Attribute Certificates (EACs) from other regions and countries across both hemispheres, including I-RECs, Guarantees of Origin (GOs), and GECs.
