Located across three districts – Jaisalmer, Rajkot and Surendranagar – this project consists of 242 turbines with a combined capacity of over 190 MW. The country’s rapid population growth has meant increasing pressure on electricity generating capacity, of which only 13% is currently supplied by renewable energy. The project displaces electricity which would have otherwise been drawn primarily from fossil fuel power stations, also improving local air quality while avoiding solid waste generation associated with coal-fired power plants. Carbon finance is essential to support India’s green growth agenda and achieve the country’s installed capacity target of 175 GW by 2022. The project aims at achieving Goals 7,8,9 as well as Goal 13 by delivering approximately 350,000 tonnes of emissions reductions annually and helps take urgent action on climate change.
Using a vertical pipe casing and well screen, the boreholes can extract clean water from the ground and communities no longer have to purify water by boiling it. This project is based around Kilifi County which is on the coast, north of Mombasa. So far more than 60 boreholes have been rehabilitated, benefiting about 37,000 people. With easy access to clean water, families no longer have to collect firewood for boiling, saving time and reducing deforestation. This project aims at achieving Goals 3,5,6,9,12,13 and 15 by providing Clean Water and Sanitation and promoting Good Health And Wellbeing.
These Gold Standard projects support low income farmers in rural areas across central and southern China by using their farm animal waste to create clean and affordable energy. The projects install small biodigesters which convert the waste from farm pigs and waste from the household into biogas. The gas is captured and used for cooking and heating - a closed loop solution to providing clean energy, which replaces coal, saving money and reducing indoor air pollution. In addition to the biodigester avoids methane emissions from the normal pit that is used to dispose of manure and it produces an effective fertilizer which can be used on the land. This Project aims at achieving Goals 1,2,3,6,7,8,9 and 13 by providing Affordable and Clean Energy, promoting Good Health and Wellbeing and provision of Clean Water and sanitation.
