The year is progressing and summer is slowly turning into autumn. It is becoming increasingly difficult for insects to find food, especially as conventional agriculture and urbanization make suitable habitat a scarce commodity. Ten years ago, the Rühme Culture and Support Association built a nature information center complete with insect hotels and a large meadow orchard. Now BS|Energy is donating €7,000 to the association, financed with funding from the Grüner Strom-Label.

The funds were used to create an area for sand bees and an additional flowering meadow for wild bees. Both species are strictly protected. Visitors can get this and more information at the specially created nature information center. The center is not only used as a local recreation area, but also offers schools and kindergartens an extracurricular learning city. "A teaching area for young and old is being created here," says Bernd Bähre 1st association chairman of the Rühme Culture and Promotion Association. The entire area includes, in addition to the nature info center and the newly created areas for sand and wild bees, some insect hotels, a bee trail with two active beehives and a large meadow orchard with 90 fruit trees. "It is important to us to support regional projects and associations in particular," says Dr. Volker Lang, member of the BS|Energy Group's Board of Management.

Electricity products with added value

The Grüner Strom-Label obliges energy providers to spend a fixed amount per kilowatt hour of electricity consumed on nature conservation or energy transition projects. Green electricity-certified products lay a foundation for a successful energy transition, as this has already enabled more than 1,400 support projects with a volume of over 75 million euros to be realized.

Transformation of Münster's heating networks - large-scale heat pump in the port power plant

A new energy turnaround project is being implemented in Münster: The large-scale heat pump in the port power plant will be an important component of the heat turnaround. 20 percent of the investment sum comes from Green Electricity funds - made possible by the green electricity tariff MeinMünster:Strom Ökostrom Pro Klima. The heat pump is climate-neutral thanks to its operation with Green Electricity-certified green electricity.
