About
Sponsorship policy
How sponsorship will work on Unbound Energy, and the line sponsors can never cross.
Unbound Energy is free to read. To keep it that way, we expect to carry sponsorship from companies working in solar, electric vehicles and clean technology. These are the rules.
What sponsors can have
- Clearly labelled sponsor slots on explainer pages and in the newsletter, marked “Sponsored”.
- Sponsored content, if we ever publish it, carries the sponsor’s name at the top and is kept apart from our editorial work.
What sponsors can never have
- No place in our trackers. Trackers and their data never carry sponsorship, and sponsors never see or influence them before publication.
- No say over data or conclusions. Sponsors don’t review, edit or approve our explainers, and they don’t choose what we cover.
- No unlabelled placements. Nothing on this site is paid for without saying so.
If there is a conflict
If we write about a company that sponsors us, we say so in the article.
