Funding of renewable energy projects in disadvantaged communities, thanks to EKOenergy users worldwide<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For every megawatt-hour of EKOenergy, a minimum of \u20ac0.10 is allocated to our Climate Fund and used to support carefully selected high-impact renewable energy projects in low- and middle-income countries. All funded projects illustrate how renewable energy, particularly solar energy, can enhance the living conditions of disadvantaged communities and contribute to achieving multiple Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), such as SDG 1 (No poverty), SDG 2 (Zero hunger), and SDG 3 (Good health and well-being).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As EKOenergy grows, so does our Climate Fund, allowing us to fund more renewable energy projects each year. Over the past years, we have granted more than 9 million euros to more than 130 projects, and we are preparing to select more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can find all funded projects, together with a short description, on the map below, or you can read more about the finalised projects in our Climate Stories leaflets<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Concrete results<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Almost weekly, we receive texts and photos from one or more of the projects we are funding. Sometimes, the grantees send us updates when they achieve important milestones, such as the installation of panels or a formal inauguration. In addition, grantees also submit interim reports and final reports, as contractually agreed. We regularly share such updates and photos in our newsletters<\/a> and on our social media. See, for example, on\u00a0Linkedin<\/a>,\u00a0Instagram<\/a>,\u00a0or YouTube<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EKOenergy’s Climate Fund is explicitly mentioned in the Greenhouse Gas Protocol Scope 2 Guidance. It is also highlighted in the Good SDG Practices publication of the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UNDESA)<\/a> and the UN Energy Compact Progress Report 2024<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Help us do more<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As EKOenergy has grown significantly over the past few years, so has our Climate Fund. However, we still receive many more project proposals than we can fund, resulting in a queue of good projects waiting for support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
