Overview 2010

"Thanks to the grand prize from the Brandenberger Foundation, we on the ADES board had noticeably fewer worries about funding for the first time in our 10-year history. The award ceremony was certainly the highlight of the ADES year in Switzerland." These lines come from the 2010 annual report. The prize was endowed with CHF 200 000. At the same time, ADES won the audience award at the Lifefair fair for sustainable living in Zurich.

At the General Assembly, Regula, who is now ADES Executive Director, steps down from the Board and hands over the presidency to long-time Board member Ueli Borsari. Board members Adrienne Borsari and Kathrin Stocker, who have also served for many years, were re-elected for another four years. The first mission statement of ADES, dated 3 November 2010, probably originated from the pen of the Board.

Another milestone is described in the annual report as follows: "The monitoring process for CO2 reduction has started well. We received the first payments from myclimate."

The fourth ADES centre opens in Morombe at the end of October. Also from October, the OLI-b goes into production after a development phase of more than 2 years. ADES sells 798 of them by the end of the year. The plan was for 200... and in mid-December ADES is already launching the OLI-c "with dance and music".
