Who we are

The Dutch ecosystem for hourly matching of green power

The TSGO Foundation is a Dutch non-profit accelerating the shift to granular matching of renewable power production and consumption. We bring together corporate offtakers, energy industries and institutional actors, bridging industry needs and regulatory reality.

TSGO operates a data platform that automates hourly matching, based upon validated smart-meter data and cross-checked against PPA-clauses and GO-cancellations. Assurance-proof, fit for Scope 2, RED III and 24/7 CFE optimization.

  • Dashboards with granular 24/7 CFE insights
  • Fully automated and compliant workflows
  • Building the new standard

TSGO is building an ecosystem to fulfil its mission of granular power matching — join us in shaping the standard.

The carbon case

Yearly green claims hide a 15–20 TWh gap.

GO’s are issued on a monthly basis and can be traded across the year. By time-stamping them we disclose the gap between current 100% green claims and the physical reality of power delivery. The energy transition needs us to make this next step and to move away from phantom-green.

Why now

Three forces pushing the market to hourly.

Hourly proof is shifting from nice-to-have to required. Three forces are pushing the market toward hourly granularity.

01

Premium Scope 2 / GHG Protocol

Front-runners are moving ahead of the expected GHG Protocol update (2027–2028) and already ask for 15- or 60-minute matching to substantiate Scope 2 claims.

GHG ProtocolScope 2
 02

RED III & EU regulation

EU directives require proof of temporal and geographic correlation. Hourly matching is mandatory for RFNBO classification, with more use cases following.

RED IIIRFNBO
03

Electrification & flexibility

Demand-response and multimodal energy solutions need granular matching to incentivise flexibility and enable portfolio optimisation across counterparties.

Roadmap

From validated data matching to a new standard.

2026 Phase 01

Report

We are ready to onboard producers and offtakers. We provide hourly matching, based on PPA’s, validated meter readings and GO-cancellations. Assurance-proof.

V1 launch · Oct 2026
2027 Phase 02

Trade

First multi-party optimization and trading pilots are scheduled for 2027. Building upon regulated GO’s + hourly profiles.

2028→ Phase 03

Standardise

TSGO will set an evidence-based course in supporting standardization and institutionalization of granular GO’s.

What TSGO is

TSGO adds assurance-proof intelligence to the institutional GO system—bridging market need and regulatory reality.

MRP-validated smart-meter data — the source of every hourly match

Complementing, not competing

TSGO provides a data service on top of the Guarantees-of-Origin system, and interacts with it.

Collaborative by design

TSGO integrates ESG reporting, data infrastructure and energy-market capabilities.

Assurance-proof

EY is guiding our bookkeeping principles and audit trail designs, to ensure every report can pass independent validation.

How it works

From meter data to assurance-proof report.

TSGO is fully API-enabled and built for complete automation. We offer flexible onboarding services designed to handle the diverse and complex realities of corporate power procurement.

01

Smart meter data

MRP-validated production and consumption via API integrations.

02

Compliant data management

Secured, meetcode compliant, with full audit trail.

03

PPA-based matching

PPA rules for matching can be fully configured.

04

Aligned with GO’s

TSGO scores get checked against GO-cancellations.

05

TSGO matching reports
