EBRD trekt 250 miljoen uit voor alternatieve energie

De Europese Bank voor Wederopbouw en Ontwikkeling (EBRD) trekt 250 miljoen euro uit voor alternatieve energie. Het gaat om leningen waarmee nieuwe projecten opgezet kunnen worden. In 2010 zette de EBRD ook al zo'n programma op voor projecten met waterkracht, wind- en zonne-energie, biomassa en biogas.

De EBRD is de belangrijkste leningenverstrekker in Oekraïne. Sinds 1993 heeft deze Europese bank al voor 12 miljard euro aan leningen uitgegeven waarmee 400 projecten vorm konden krijgen.
