Since 2016, ecoligo has been implementing energy-as-a-service projects financed by investors who are interested in both impact and return on investment. ecoligo has implemented 169 projects with a total output of 82.4-Megawatt peak (MWp) in emerging markets across three continents to date, where energy demand is quickly rising compared to major industrialized nations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ecoligo will use the investment sum to continue to grow sustainably, expand existing markets, and effectively contribute to the global energy transition. Additionally, ecoligo intends to further develop its digital impact investing platform and offer more investment opportunities in its projects across the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video\"><video controls poster=\"https:\/\/media.alj.com\/app\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Ecoligo-Video-Poster-EN.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/media.alj.com\/app\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Abdul-Latif-Jameel-Energys-FRV-X-invests-US-9.7m-in-Berlin-based-ecoligo-EN-VO-Subs.mp4\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The success of the global energy transition is dependent upon the inclusion of emerging markets. However, there is often a funding gap for solar projects in these countries which makes access to financing from traditional sources more difficult. Therefore, ecoligo offers full-service energy solutions including planning, construction, maintenance, and the financing of the plants using crowd investing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/media.alj.com\/en\/our-people\/fady-jameel\/\">Fady Jameel<\/a>, Deputy President and Vice Chairman of Abdul Latif Jameel said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>\u201cOur investment in ecoligo comes in line with our commitment to support innovative business models in the renewable energy sector whilst still delivering a positive impact.
