Our Projects
Our Projects make a difference, they are measurable and sustainable and has a global impact.
The involvement and implementation of our solutions
develops and de-risks carbon and renewable projects, so that they become an investable proposition. By developing these projects in Sri Lanka,
the team are developing their capacity, knowledge, skills and experience which can go onto support other project developers in Asia and Africa.
Currently there are 5 ongoing projects in Sri Lanka, and 5 projects under development. All identified projects accomplish multiple UN Sustainable Development Goals
(SDG’s) in addition to the stated key objectives of carbon reduction and climate resilience for Sri Lanka’s future in sustainable and inclusive growth.
Gliricidia Carbon
Gliricidia Carbon Project
Gliricidia Sepium a rapidly growing, drought resistant, short rotation coppicing tree that grows across the equator. The showcase project is developed in Sri Lanka under an aggregator model to plant Gliricidia trees as boundary fences and intercropped with other cash crops. The project is replicable and scalable across the equator enabling community, livelihood development and enabling soil improvement.
Sustainable agriculture methods to improve crop yields
Protect water table from overuse of chemical fertiliser
Save money on use of chemical fertilisers
Methane Reduction: Paddy Lands
Methane Reduction: Paddy Lands Project
Sri Lanka’s Paddy production is approximately 5,120,924 metric tonnes per annum. The project intends to implement the methane reduction method, Alternate Wetting and Drying (AWD) system to issue methane credits to support paddy farming communities.
Sustainable agriculture methods to improve crop yields
Increase farmer income through carbon financing
Improved Cookstove Project
In Sri Lanka, 4.3 million households out of a total of 6 million households are wood stove users. Fuel efficient/improved cook stoves help to slow the pace of deforestation and forest degradation by reducing the volume of fuelwood needed for cooking and eliminate health hazards. The project will implement improved cooking stoves in households of Sri Lanka and enable additional income through carbon credit revenues.
Safe cooking environment and reduction of health hazards
Energy efficient, clean cooking method
Increase farmer income through carbon financing
Improved Cookstove
Biochar+ Soil Carbon Project
Biochar is the residue from pyrolysis of biomass made of carbon and ashes. Gliricidia branches will be a biomass source for biochar.Development of a soil carbon project for customers using biochar.
Promote soil and plant health
Efficiently deal with agricultural waste
Biochar + Soil Carbon
Zero Polythene in Elephant Conservation Areas
Zero Polythene in Elephant Conservation Areas Project
The project is the first national effort to conserve elephants with “zero polythene zones” and increase the quality of their habitats. At the heart of the project lies the ambition to reduce polythene by 100% in dump sites with positive community participation and introduce a Plastic Credits programme for the collected plastics which will then be recycled.
Raised awareness of proper waste management
Habitat quality of elephants enhanced and conserved
Raised awareness and changed behavior towards a "Zero Polythene" environment
Mini-Hydro Development
Mini-Hydro Development Project
A significant portion of Sri Lanka’s electricity requirement is fulfilled by thermal power generation, the bulk of which is coal powered. Bio Coal is a viable alternative to replace upwards of 100MW of existing thermal capacity.
Rooftop Solar and Storage Project
This project will be in partnership with a financial institution offering Solar + Storage Self Consumption to its client base across the island specifically for high consumption households and companies.
Utilisation of idle space
Reduction of household/industry electricity expense
Reduction of load/demand on national grid
Rooftop Solar and Storage
Floating Solar
Floating Solar Project
Sri Lanka has set a target for 70% of electricity to be from renewable energy by 2030. This would require 8,000-10,000 MW of renewable energy capacity addition within this decade. Larger scale floating solar can be implemented quickly to meet these objectives.
Increased levels of power generation
Utilisation of idle space
