This Gold Standard certified wind farm is located in the mountain ranges of Costa Rica, right where Pacific and Atlantic weathers clash. The rough climate is visible when looking at the blades and the towers of the turbines, which are partly covered with moss.

This project distinguishes itself by a very high degree of stakeholder involvement. It is managed by a local cooperative, “Coopesantos” which has organized many workshops in more than a dozen local communities around the windfarm to gain support and collect financing for the project. As part of these efforts, a local participation program was established to distribute the project revenues back to the local shareholders of the cooperative.
The project participants Coopesantos and Carbonbay are welcoming any kind of comments, questions or requests with regard to the project activity or the certificates. Please do not hesitate to contact us at info@carbonbay.com.
