About
using carbon credits to build a new hydro power plant
situated between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, separated by a diversity of river systems, lie the coastal plains and rugged mountain chains of the three Central American countries: Costa Rica, Honduras and Nicaragua. the Guacamaya program addresses the lack of electricity grid coverage in the countries' widely dispersed rural and underdeveloped regions. access to modern and sustainable energy services is fundamental in order to reduce rural poverty and inequality. a sustainable energy infrastructure may help to improve health, broaden the reach of education and promote economic growth.
the PoA supports the development of new small-scale, national grid connected run-of-river power projects. each project is transforming the remote and underserved communities by providing clean electricity, constructing and maintaining local infrastructure, creating job opportunities, introducing modern technology as well as improving education. with the help of the PoA, the construction of a school centre in the community of El Salto, Honduras was achieved.
