El Joa@Tutanota sounds good but from whom (which power company ) do you / your datacenter buy that green energy?
Any news on that question?
("from whom (which power company ) do you / your datacenter buy that ' green energy' ?" )
@el_joa @greenfediverse It comes from Norway, via innogy.
OK, thanks a lot for the answer, though it was not was I was hoping for! :-(
As far as I can tell #innogy is owned either by #EON or by #RWE (they have been - and I think still are - selling it back and forth, probably to confuse people and for #greenwashing), and both are NOT allies on the path towards #greenenergy.
I wouldn't want for any of them to get my money! :-(
Did you consider other options or will you do so in the future?
@el_joa @greenfediverse Thanks for your feedback. We didn't know that and will look into it. For the servers, however, we don't have much choice as it's done via our hosting partner. It took several years of convincing/pressure until they would offer us green energy at all...

Also, since I've been reading the usual flames on reddit about whether "green energy" is green at all, but atm I'm only interested in having tangible clue of genuine and transparent effort as a first step by your side to switch to your service... could you please add a page on your website where the energy providers and your relaying on them are clearly stated? That would make your claims easier to track and give you more credibility. Thanks!

@materhyu No news, sorry. As we host our servers at a data center, we can't freely decide, but we've at least made them switch to renewable energy via innogy. For our office we use a better sustainable provider as here we have the power to choose ourselves.
