Despite the cancellation of COP 25 in Chile, the climate crisis<br />

continues, that’s why in <strong>ACERA</strong> we will continue with our<br />

campaign #SoñemosEnergía2030 to highlight how important is<br />

to combat the climate change.<br />

To the videos already published by Ricardo Lagos, former<br />

President of Chile, the Director of TECHO, Sebastián Bowen,<br />

the journalist Paloma Avila, and many others, some new ones<br />

have been added: meteorologist Michelle Adam, the President<br />

and CEO of <strong>ACERA</strong>, the journalist Maria Elena Dressel, and<br />

chef Carlo von Mühlenbrock, among others. You can follow<br />

the campaign using the hashtag or through our YOUTUBE<br />

channel <strong>ACERA</strong> AG.<br />

"30 Dreams for 2030" will end on November 21 with a seminar<br />

entitled "Dreaming Energy: From Illusion to Practice", which<br />

seeks to address how to make a reality the dreams presented<br />

by the 30 characters who dreamed a different Chile by 2030,<br />

considering the current situation of the country, to carry on a<br />

conversation with a social perspective when it comes to solve<br />

environmental issues.<br />

Ministry of Energy and BancoEstado<br />

launch first green consumption credit<br />

The Minister of Energy, Juan Carlos Jobet, together with its<br />

Finance peers, Felipe Larraín, of Environment, Carolina<br />

Schmidt, and the president of BancoEstado, Arturo Tagle, gave<br />

the go-ahead on the first green consumer credit. The initiative,<br />

aimed at both clients and non-clients of BancoEstado, seeks to<br />

finance energy efficiency projects and renewable energy for<br />

homes, encouraging the use of clean and friendly sources,<br />

through projects of thermal insulation, solar energy, air<br />

conditioning and efficient ventilation.<br />

"This credit from BancoEstado that allows to finance the<br />

installation of solar panels is good news, not only because the<br />

installation of solar energy in the houses contributes to take<br />

care of the environment, but also takes care of the pocket. With<br />

the installation of solar panels households could have savings<br />

of up to $300,000 a year, which means between 80 and 90%<br />

of the monthly electricity bill," explained the energy minister.<br />

It should be noted that this product adds to other initiatives<br />

developed by BancoEstado in the same vein, such as the<br />

Ecohousing Mortgage Credit and the Green Credit for SMEs.<br />
