To transfer Guarantees of Origin yourself within Switzerland, you need an account in the shkn.pronovo.ch register. This page guides you through logging in, accessing account reports, and viewing available GOs for a specific period.

If you do not yet have an account in the shkn.pronovo.ch register, you have three options:

  1. Create an account: https://pronovo.ch/de/unternehmen/kontakt/
  2. If you are an end consumer: mandate BUYECO to transfer and cancel your Guarantees of Origin info@buyeco.ch
  3. If you are a producer: delegate the management of your Guarantees of Origin to BUYECO

Step 1 — Open the Login Page

Go to the Pronovo portal for the GO-CH system: https://shkn.pronovo.ch.

  • Technology code (e.g. hydropower)
  • Support type (e.g. No support)
