Arrives in Spain Ener2Crowd.com, the Italian platform for environmental crowdfunding and energy loans that connects companies with a community of ethical investors who can provide the necessary resources to develop the sustainability and the energy transition, financing all types of projects that generate social and environmental benefits.
The goal for 2022 is to reach finance 15 million euros of projects and reach at least 2024 million euros annually by 100, competing—but also collaborating—with the largest European investment funds specialized in environmental and energy sustainability.
"We use crowdfunding not only as an alternative financing tool, but also as an instrument that allows us to bring together the different people and entities in the community that will benefit from the proposed projects," he explains. Niccolò Sovico, CEO, creator and co-founder of Ener2Crowd.com.
Become a GreenVestor (that's what the platform's investors are called) means having the opportunity to make a difference in the fight against climate change, being able to choose where to invest the savings and make them available to the sustainable revolution while achieving profitability.
«With our entry into the Spanish market, Italians will be able to invest in projects to be carried out in Spain, just as Spaniards will be able to invest in projects to be carried out in Italy, with the common denominator of investing money in green projects that provide both economic and environmental benefits," he adds. Giorgio Mottironi, CSO and co-founder of Ener2Crowd.com as well as chief analyst of the GreenVestingForum, the forum for green financial investments.

"What unites Italians and Spaniards is the propensity to save and - in addition - both countries are especially favored when it comes to the use of solar energy," observe Ener2Crowd.com analysts.
"But Spaniards save even more efficiently," the analysts add. In fact, according to a study by the international banking group N26, with respect to total income, the monthly percentage of savings for Spain is 23%, while in Germany, is 18%, in Italy 16% and in France of 6%.
«Another peculiarity that emerges from the study – Ener2Crowd.com analysts emphasize – is that men earn on average 30% more than women, but they saved less money, with a greater salary gap that occurs between 55 and 59 years: in this group, men earn 42% more than women.
«By then individually examining the situation of each city based always on the absolute values revealed by N26, on the podium of savings are placed Munich with 1.026,18 euros of average monthly savings, Berlin with 449,21 euros and Milan with 428,55 euros" show the Ener2Crowd.com analysts.

Our main objective will be to make everyone aware that it is possible to lead a sustainable life and, at the same time, benefit economically from this change in our daily lives. I believe that Spain has enormous potential in the energy transition and must become a European leader in this change: we want everyone to have the option to support this energy transition in Spain and benefit from it, ensuring that we are heading towards a democratic, inclusive, fair and prosperous future for all" declares David Llonch Santos, Country Manager of Ener2Crowd.com in Spain.
