Renewable Energy Wind Farm (Turkey)
GOLD STANDARD VER

This premium project generates energy from a natural source, the wind, and is helping Turkey to overcome its reliance on coal and gas. Zorlu wind farm is working towards gold standard certification, which means it must demonstrate extra positive social, environmental and economic impacts on the local area. The project is creating jobs and transferring engineering knowledge and technical skills to local people.

Zorlu is expected to reduce emissions by an estimated 302,675 tonnes CO2 during the first 7 year period. To offset your carbon through this scheme costs £15.66 per tonne (£18.40 including VAT) and you can buy the offsets online.
