Trillion fund is a crowdfunding platform that was born in Great Britain in 2010 and is focused on renewable energy projects. In April 2015, it received a round of funding of $825.21k led by Seedrs.
Another specialised platform is Abudance generator, a London-based company founded in 2009, which manages to raise small amounts of 5$ from many contributors for renewable energy projects.
Ecrowd, Spanish platform for renewable energy projects
Spain is also seeing the emergence of crowdlending platforms more focused on the energy sector. In the last quarter, one of these, Ecrowd, has gained the support of investors through the Crowdcube platform.
Ecrowd is a crowdfunding platform dedicated exclusively to projects that lead to an improvement of society and the environment. Its founder, Mathew Van Haperen, has worked for more than 6 years in the renewable energy sector as founder/director of Solariza Energía.
Its financed projects include several fibre optic installation operations in different towns and villages, as well as a campaign to remove biomass from Catalan forests. It is also currently involved in the 100schools.org which aims to bring energy efficiency to a large number of educational centres.
