The municipality of Sirdal in Norway has implemented a unique program, distributing 4000 Norwegian kroner (approximately $360 USD) to each resident. Funded by dividends from the local energy company Å Energi, the initiative has seen overwhelming participation, with over 90% of the population benefiting. The funds aim to support residents during challenging economic times, with many using them for practical purposes like heat pumps and youth activities. The program reflects Sirdal's financial stability compared to other municipalities facing budget deficits.
