A big Thank You to all participants in our anniversary brain teaser! In the year of SunEnergy’s anniversary, the Christmas mailing was themed “The 10-year SunEnergy milestone has been reached, but what does this actually represent?" The question to decipher was “How many Christmas trees must be planted in order to absorb the same amount of CO₂ as SunEnergy Europe has saved through its photovoltaic installations over the last ten years?” The correct answer was 100 Million Christmas trees. Congratulations to the winners of an “Energy Autonomy”-DVD and, of course, the lucky winner of the first prize, a Junghans “Milano” solar powered wristwatch.
Among the winners is the rural population in Togo as well: For each entry in the brain teaser, SunEnergy made a donation to the solar light project “lumière pour tous”. African Social Business and Kopeme Group have successfully set up a microfinance project to supply rural population in Togo with solar powered lamps. For several years now SunEnergy Europe has been supporting the initiative.
