We have just become a carbon neutral company!
We have chosen 3 projects that have enabled us to become a carbon neutral business. One of which is the Burgos Wind Farm project in the Philippines.
This is the largest wind farm in the Philippines. It is located in one of the best areas in the country to generate clean energy from wind.
The 150-MW facility has fifty Vestas V90 wind turbines, each with a rated capacity of 3 MWs. The wind farm has a substation which is connected to a 43km 115 kV transmission line to the Laoag substation of the grid operator, the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines.
The other is the the Hydro Power project in Chilie.
Located in the Tinguiririca River upper valley, this Hydroelectric project is around 120km south of Santiago, Chile.
Known as La Confluencia, the power plant utilises the hydrological resources of the Tinguiririca, Portillo and Azufre rivers, in a run of river scheme to generate and supply zero emission energy to the Chilean Central Electricity Grid.
The power plant generates certified emission reductions by displacing electricity generation from grid connected fossil fuel-fired power plants that would otherwise be generating electricity.
The last one is the Rice Husk Power project in Cambodia.
The Angkor Bio Cogen project is the first renewable energy project to utilise rice husk as a biomass fuel for electricity generation in Cambodia.
The electricity generated from biomass power plant to the Angkor Rice Mill that, in absence of the project activity, uses diesel oil to generate electricity for the rice mill operation. It also provides surplus electricity to neighbouring factories and communiies through the power utility in Angsnoul District that, in the absence of the project would use diesel oil or batteries.
