Through A2E CSR Fund, EDP provides one million euros to finance projects that contribute to fighting poverty and energy exclusion in Africa. Organizations can apply until 22 May.

• Support of one million euros, under the 5th edition of the Access to Energy Fund (A2E), will directly impact around half a million people.
• With this initiative, EDP is reinforcing its strategy of social impact and a just energy transition in developing economies, one of the topics on the agenda of COP28, which is taking place in Dubai.

. EDP will focus on the Just Energy Transition through a more focused social investment strategy aligned with its purpose.
. All projects will be framed under a new common identity - EDP Y.E.S. - You Empower Society, a global brand across all countries where EDP invests in social impact initiatives.
. EDP’s ambition is to invest annually more than 30 million euros and a new area will ensure the global strategy and coordination.
. The launch of the 4th edition of the A2E (Access to Energy) fund - which supports clean energy access projects in developing countries - is one of the initiatives to go ahead with doubling the amount of funding in previous editions.
