🌿 Sustainable & Renewable Energy News 


Key Takeaways for Impact Investors

  • High-yield debt opportunities continue in utility-scale solar (Fundeen, Lendopolis) and bioenergy (Ener2Crowd), with clear local-impact angles and, in some cases, geographic reservations that reward community participation.

  • Equity options like Capitane Coop (LITA) broaden sector exposure beyond energy into culture & creative industries—with tax advantages (Belgium).

  • Platform robustness remains strong: Enerfip’s H1 2025 barometer shows rising volumes, healthy net IRR (~7.92%), and very low defaults (0.1%), underscoring maturing risk management in European energy-transition crowdfunding.

  • Social co-benefits are in focus: asbestos removal, worker safety, public service savings (firefighters), and food-system resilience (Kenya avocado value chain).


⚠️ Risk & Eligibility Notes

Crowdfunding investments are illiquid, can result in total loss, and may be restricted by geography or investor status. Always read the KIID/Key Information Document, check security/guarantees, and assess borrower/issuer credit. Diversify across platforms, sectors, and maturities.
