What is EGCG???? Is that like caffeine?

Im reading in these energy packets I got and it says it contains 25MG of caffeine & 63 MG of Green Tea Antioxidants (EGCG) So i take it its the green tea extract?? So my question is what exactly is it? Does it act like an energy booster like caffeine does?????

Thanks :)

Green Tea has many compounds that can shield you from harmful diseases including cancer and heart disease. One of these compounds is EGCG, which is a substance with 25 to 100 times the antioxidant power of vitamins C and E. In fact, just one cup of green tea has more antioxidants than a serving of broccoli, spinach, carrots, or strawberries.
