About renewable
These projects create the infrastructure needed to generate renewable energy harnessed from natural resources like the sun or wind. Once these sources are in place, they become a permanent source of clean energy.
How it works
- Project developer funds the installment of the wind farm
- Community members are hired to run and maintain the facilities
- Clean, renewable electricity is generated and supplied to the local energy grid; displacing the need for fossil fuel powered electricity, reducing CO2 emissions
- The project supports the local community, infrastructure and promotes the transition to clean and renewable energy
Proof of Carbon Accounting
To ensure transparency, Green Story Carbon Registry tracks issuance and retirement of carbon credits for all projects on the Green Story offset platform.
