Stiftung ÖKOWATT Nürtingen is a nonprofit foundation dedicated to climate protection in Nürtingen, Germany. Since 2005, electricity consumers have been able to support its work by paying an additional 1.72 cents plus VAT per kilowatt-hour, making an active contribution to local climate action. The foundation provides information and advice on saving energy and generating electricity, helping residents explore ways to reduce consumption and produce power themselves.

Its work includes projects and educational initiatives for children, school students and young adults, as well as campaigns and guidance on grant applications for residents. ÖKOWATT also shares information about external funding opportunities and supports community discussion around energy and climate topics. Its areas of focus include photovoltaic systems, energy storage, electric mobility and local energy initiatives. Events, workshops and information evenings offer opportunities to learn about subjects such as future heating options and climate-conscious living. Through its projects, advice and partnerships, the foundation contributes to discussion about how Nürtingen can move toward climate neutrality, including the goal of achieving it by 2035.
