This is project generates verified carbon offset certificates, each has a unique serial number and is equivalent to one tonne of CO2e removed from the atmosphere.
SITUATION
Hydropower plants do not emit the waste heat and gases—common with fossil-fuel driven facilities—which are major contributors to air pollution, global warming and acid rain.
Hydro Power Projects
The mining and drilling required to acquire fossil fuels for other power sources also have a significant negative environmental impact.
SOLUTION
These projects produce renewable energy replacing electricity generated by fossil fuels, keeping millions of tonnes of CO2 out of the atmosphere each year in areas that have enormous hydropower potential to supply the surrounding region with clean energy.
IMPACT
By producing clean, renewable electricity, this project is reducing reliance on fossil fuel energy sources which cuts global emissions. It also contributes to local economic development by providing job opportunities and improving the local infrastructure.
OUTCOME
Meeting the growing demand for electricity with clean energy to help to drive a low carbon future and boost local economic development. Provide opportunities for the next generation of renewable energy technicians and pave the way for similar projects in the region.
– Certificates can be verified on the Verra registry, where the full project specifications are also recorded.
– Carbon offsets are measurable, verifiable emission reductions from projects that remove carbon from the atmosphere and can take place anywhere in the world.
– Offset certificates finance verified projects that reduce and eliminate carbon which are subject to a rigorous registration and verification process.
– Projects can include wind, solar, hydro, biomass energy recovery, geothermal and GHG abatement. They aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions whilst supporting the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals.
– We supply offsets through The Carbon Trade Exchange which guarantees transactions and provides rigorous measures to protect our customers.
– After purchase, you will receive a certificate showing the amount of tonnes you have bought, along with their serial numbers.
Verra carbon offsets are issued under the Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) Program, a leading greenhouse gas (GHG) crediting program. Verra sets the world’s leading standards for climate action and sustainable development. VCS projects have reduced or removed nearly one billion tons of carbon from the atmosphere with activities that reduce and remove emissions, improve livelihoods, and protect nature.
