Oranje Energie, formerly known as 02025, is an Amsterdam-based network focused on clean energy and community-led transition. Its mission is to mobilise residents in the Dutch capital who want to save energy, switch to cleaner sources, and organise themselves around local energy solutions. The organisation presents itself as a platform for hundreds of initiatives across the city, with a stated goal that by 2035 at least one third of Amsterdam’s energy assets will be owned by residents themselves.
The organisation operates in Amsterdam and works at neighbourhood level, linking citizens, community groups and partners around practical energy measures. Its activities include advising residents on how to save, store, generate and share energy, and supporting local initiatives that make the transition more accessible. Among the projects highlighted on its website are Het plan en de monitor, Energiespreekuur, De Cactus, Slotermeer PowerHour App, and Benut de overvloed van gemiddeld 2 uur per dag!, which suggests a focus on direct engagement, local experimentation and public information.
The site also shows that Oranje Energie functions as a community hub, publishing news, event listings and calls for participants in energy-related activities. Its partners include the Municipality of Amsterdam, the Province of North Holland, APEC, Rabobank, MeentCoop and others, indicating connections across public, financial and civic actors.
The organisation appears to have evolved from the earlier 02025 name to Oranje Energie, but the page excerpt does not provide a founding date. Key people visible in the site content include Elise van Veen, Esther Heide, Imre Degenhart and Mart Boden, though their exact roles are not specified in the supplied material.
