For each MWh of EKOenergy sold, a minimum of \u20ac0.10 goes to EKOenergy\u2019s Climate Fund. The Climate Fund takes your contribution to wherever it\u00b4s needed. And of course, you have your say in the decision: EKOenergy sellers and consumers are actively involved in the selection of the projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why is the Climate Fund a basic element of EKOenergy?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because it’s important to show to the consumers that with their renewable energy consumption, new renewable energy is born.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why is the contribution 10 cents per MWh?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We want to keep EKOenergy available for all. Therefore we ask a very limited basic contribution. At the same time, we stress that this is a minimum contribution. We hope our projects will inspire people and encourage them to make extra donations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Which kind of projects does the Climate Fund finance?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With our first call for projects we targeted developing countries and most of the applications came from Africa. We received 130 applications from 70 different countries. We want to make the best use of each cent, and in developing countries, 1 euro is worth a lot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last year, our Climate Fund financed solar panels on schools in 6 schools: 1 in Tanzania, 2 in Indonesia and 3 in Cameroon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
