Add tons CO2 avoided/invested €#32

In the brief descriptions for each investment add a row where you divide CO2 avoided by the total investment cost. That way it’ll be easier to compare the CO2 efficiency between loans.

It’s of course easily done by myself but would be a nice feature when choosing between loans.

Could also add similar indicator “people with electricity per invested €”

I have missed this since the beginning, to be able to compare impact between projects

Impact per € invested is a key metric - another way would be to calculate impact per € lent for 1 year (to take into account different loan lenghts). Also on the topic of impact more transparency on how impact is calculated, verrified and hopefully revisited at the end of the project would be appreciated

Currently, we estimate impact by considering impact per euro for different loan durations. Your feedback on transparency regarding how impact is calculated, verified, and reassessed at project completion is noted. I’ve shared your request with our team.

Hi everyone!

We’ve explored adding CO₂ efficiency (CO₂ avoided per investment) to compare loans more easily. An initial test didn’t give the results we hoped for, but we’re refining it and will test a new version soon. We’ll keep you posted!

Hi again, everyone!

We’ve now added the CO₂ avoided per investment to the tooltip, allowing you to compare the impact of different loans (see the attached example below). Hopefully, this is clear, but feel free to share any feedback.

Thanks!

Thank you! Time to mark as done? :)

@Jointrine.hei of course - thanks for the reminder! The post is now marked as completed.

“CO2 avoided per invested €” is a complex thing to calculate.

“CO2 avoided” depends on how long the solar panels will be used. Is the current “CO2 avoided” number only the CO2 avoided during the loan period? And not for the lifetime of the system? and thus gives Vu Phong a higher CO2 avoided numbers than other loans?

So I think CO2 avoided should be calculated over the expected lifetime of the system. Sorry if this is not the proper place to post this suggestion.

Another (less important) consideration for CO2 avoided is how fast the lender starts to prevent CO2. For example a loan that sets up all the solar panels online and in-use after 6 months, compared to a loan that slowly sets up same amount of solar over 5 years.
