The solar plants supply companies relying on fossil energy sources with more affordable and sustainable, clean electricity produced in-house. To date, ecoligo has implemented <strong>169 projects with a total output of 82.4 MWp<\/strong> \u2013 more than all the PV plants in Hamburg<sup>1<\/sup>. The projects are implemented in emerging markets on three continents so far, where energy demand is quickly rising compared to major industrialized nations. The success of the global energy transition will be determined by whether emerging nations are considered. However, there is a funding gap for solar projects in these countries making access to financing from traditional sources more difficult, which is why ecoligo offers a full-service solution including planning, construction, maintenance, and financing of the plants through retail investors.<\/p>\n<p>ecoligo and their community of private impact investors are actively protecting the climate, the projects signed so far are going to measurably contribute to CO\u2082 savings of more than 1 million tonnes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FRV-X and ecoligo leverage synergies to scale sustainable energy together<\/strong><\/p>\n                <div class=\"sh-quote\">\n                    <div class=\"sh-quote-content\">\n                        With its focus on commercial and industrial facilities, ecoligo perfectly complements our activities in the field of large-scale solar farms.

With this investment, FRV is expanding its portfolio to include the commercial and industrial customer segment through ecoligo&#8217;s work. So far, FRV has a pipeline of more than 10 GW around 5 continents, including PV Plants, Wind, BESS, Hybrid and Green Hydrogen, and every year helps to avoid more than 1 million tonnes of CO\u2082 being released into the atmosphere.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Global energy transition is being decided in emerging markets<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Since 2016, ecoligo has been implementing energy-as-a-service projects financed by retail investors who are interested in both impact and return on investment using a digital platform initiated by ecoligo. The solar plants supply companies relying on fossil energy sources with more affordable and sustainable, clean electricity produced in-house. To date, ecoligo has implemented <strong>169 projects with a total output of 82.4 MWp<\/strong> \u2013 more than all the PV plants in Hamburg<sup>1<\/sup>. The projects are implemented in emerging markets on three continents so far, where energy demand is quickly rising compared to major industrialized nations. The success of the global energy transition will be determined by whether emerging nations are considered. However, there is a funding gap for solar projects in these countries making access to financing from traditional sources more difficult, which is why ecoligo offers a full-service solution including planning, construction, maintenance, and financing of the plants through retail investors.<\/p>\n<p>ecoligo and their community of private impact investors are actively protecting the climate, the projects signed so far are going to measurably contribute to CO\u2082 savings of more than 1 million tonnes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FRV-X and ecoligo leverage synergies to scale sustainable energy together<\/strong><\/p>\n                <div class=\"sh-quote\">\n                    <div class=\"sh-quote-content\">\n                        With its focus on commercial and industrial facilities, ecoligo perfectly complements our activities in the field of large-scale solar farms.
