The purpose of the Poechos II hydroelectric power plant is to generate electricity, utilizing renewable energy sources to be supplied to the Peruvian National Inter-connected Electric Grid (SEIN).

The bundled project activity comprises of two run-of-the river hydroelectric schemes with capacities of 5 MW each. It utilizes surplus hydro potential available in Baner Khad & Iku Khad, both tributaries of the river Beas in the state of Himachal Pradesh, Northern India. It exports the generated electricity to the Himachal…

The project resides in the industrial district of Bocaiúva, in the northern state of Minas Gerais, a region dedicated to metallurgy, mining, agriculture and reforestation. The project replaces fossil fuel by renewable biomass at one of the factories of Rima Industrial.

The Project is developed in a hydroelectric power plant located in Peru, in the North-western Department of Piura and has an installed capacity and projected yearly average generation of 15.2 MW and 57,740 MWh. The Project is expected to displace 31,463 tCO2e per year.

The purpose of this project is to reduce emissions from household cooking stoves. The use of non-renewable fuel such as wood and charcoal for cooking, leads to the emission of greenhouses gasses, deforestation and poor indoor climate. The programme uses a number of different technologies to reach this goal.

The Grid-Connected Solar PV Power Project in Bhagwanpura, located in the Javad tehsil of Neemach district, Madhya Pradesh, India a visionary initiative, implemented by Welspun Solar Madhya Pradesh Private Limited (WSMPPL), signifies a monumental step towards sustainability and environmental stewardship.

CookClean manufactures efficient cookstoves to displace the resources wasteful and unhealthy traditional stoves which kill 13,400 people and subject 21 million to Household Air Pollution yearly in Ghana.

A recent study in Malawi showed that switching from a three-stone fire to a Chitetezo Mbaula stove reduces the amount of particles emitted by 46% and carbon monoxide by 44%. A well-tuned stove can reduce firewood consumption by up to 80%, knowing that Malawi suffered 57% deforestation between 1972 and 1992. The Chite…
