DOE Mountain Forestry Project,
United States (Johnson County, TN)
The Doe Mountain Improved Forest Management Project
protects a stretch of mixed-hardwood forest across 8,500 acres
in Northeastern Tennessee. Management of the area includes
natural forest growth and non-commercial maintenance harvests
to promote forest health and helps to support carbon
sequestration. The Doe Mountain project is verified under the
American Carbon Registry and estimated to have an emissions
reduction of 38,000 metric tons of CO2 per year.
Hydrologic Ceramic Water Filter
Project, Cambodia
The Hydrologic Ceramic Water Filter Project in
Cambodia helps provide access to safe drinking water
and basic sanitation to 1.7 million people across 312,000
households over seven years. Replacing traditional
wood-burning stoves used to boil water with these water
filters helps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and
maintain Cambodia’s forests. These forests are important
stores of carbon and critical to the health of ecosystems
and local livelihoods, particularly women, and children.
This project is verified under the Gold Standard.
The Saint Nikola Wind Farm is the largest wind energy project
in Bulgaria, consisting of 52 turbines, with a generation capacity of
156MW. The project contributes to approximately 22% of the
total installed electricity generation capacity from wind power in
the country. Located on the Black Sea, in the Northeastern town
of Kavarna, the wind farm has produced over 3.2 million MWh
of electricity and has prevented at least 2 million metric tons of
carbon dioxide emissions from being released into the environment
since coming online. The project displaces fossil fuel-fired power
plants and reduces an estimated 244,224 tons of CO2e per year.
This project is verified under the Verra standard.
