Angkor Bio Cogen (ABC) project, the first renewable energy project to utilize rice husk as biomass fuel for electricity generation in Cambodia, involves the operation of 2 MW new rice husk power generation plant in the Kandal province.

Wind turbines generate electricity using the power of the wind, reducing the amount of fossil fuels that we need to use to generate our power, and therefore reducing the amount of greenhouse gases that we release to our atmosphere. Project benefits: preserving natural resources; promoting renewable energy; reducing depende…

Quilleco is a run-of-river hydroelectric plant with an effective installed capacity of 70 MW, which uses the waters of the Laja River Basin to deliver energy to the National Electrical System equivalent to the consumption of more than 162,000 people.

The Nadarivatu Hydroelectric Power Plant project involves the construction of a hydroelectric power plant on the upper reaches of the Sigatoka river headwaters at the junction of the Qaliwana and Nakunuku rivers, in the interior of Viti Levu Island of Fiji.

The project activity is promoted by Tirupati Microtech Private Limited and it uses renewable energy (wind) as a clean fuel to generate electrical energy. The total installed capacity of the project is 3.95 MW.

The project's main purpose is to provide renewable electricity power to the National Interconnected System avoiding thermoelectric plants operation that use fossil fuels as energy source.

This cook stove project is run by RIPPLE Africa (a UK charity) and benefits approximately 200,000 people in Malawi. RIPPLE has so far replaced about 40,000 traditional three-stone cooking fires with fuel efficient cook stoves. This project is reducing greenhouse gases emissions as well as preventing deforestation and respi…

Over 3 billion people still cook over polluting fires, a major contributor to carbon emissions. Household air pollution is the leading environmental cause of death and disability, ahead of unsafe water and lack of sanitation, causing more deaths than Malaria, HIV and TB combined. Clean cookstoves are vital to tackle both g…
