EKOenergy is a globally available nonprofit ecolabel for #renewableenergy, managed by environmental organisations. By choosing EKOenergy-labelled energy, you help us fight climate change, protect biodiversity, and promote international solidarity. #SDGs
In 2024, we granted €27,500 from our Climate Fund to the Malaysian nonprofit organisation Tonibung, for the installation of a solar-powered water pumping and filtration system in a rural Indigenous community in Sabah, Malaysia.

The system is now fully operational!

Thanks to all those involved!

Our weekly reminder to all decision-makers:

Fossil fuel companies are spending billions to spread fake news and confusion, but they can't change the laws of physics.

To avert disastrous climate change, we urgently need to stop burning fossil fuels. Not some, but all!

It's always encouraging to receive news from the solar projects we fund in various parts of the world.

Here are some photos from the inauguration of solar installations in remote, off-grid villages near Lake Titicaca in Bolivia. Many people in these communities live on less than 2 USD per day.

Saudi Arabia has added so much solar in 2025 that it’s broken into the top 10 global markets for annual new solar for the first time!

And there are many good reasons for that move. Most of these, unsurprisingly, economic reasons👇

Our European Solidarity Corps volunteer EKO-Kateryna made a short presentation for the rest of the team on how large-scale nature restoration projects in Ukraine, such as the one in the Budzhak Steppes National Park, serve many functions!

Good for nature, good for the people, good for the nation.

"Strong growth from solar and wind generation, along with small increases from nuclear and hydro, nearly matched a rapid rise in demand."
