DOE Mountain Forestry Project,
United States (Johnson County, TN)
The Doe Mountain Improved Forest
Management Project protects a stretch of
mixed-hardwood forest across 8,500 acres
in Northeastern Tennessee. Management of the
area includes natural forest growth and non-
commercial maintenance harvests to promote
forest health and helps to support carbon
sequestration. The Doe Mountain project is
verified under the American Carbon Registry and
estimated to have an emissions reduction
of 38,000 metric tons of CO2 per year.
Hydrologic Ceramic Water Filter
Project, Cambodia
The Hydrologic Ceramic Water Filter Project
in Cambodia helps provide access to safe
drinking water and basic sanitation to 1.7 million
people across 312,000 households over seven
years. Replacing traditional wood-burning stoves
used to boil water with these water filters helps to
reduce greenhouse gas emissions and maintain
Cambodia’s forests. These forests are important
stores of carbon and critical to the health of
ecosystems and local livelihoods, particularly
women, and children. This project is verified
under the Gold Standard.
The Saint Nikola Wind Farm is the largest
wind energy project in Bulgaria, consisting of 52
turbines, with a generation capacity of 156MW.
The project contributes to approximately 22% of
the total installed electricity generation capacity
from wind power in the country. Located on the
Black Sea, in the Northeastern town of Kavarna,
the wind farm has produced over 3.2 million MWh
of electricity and has prevented at least 2 million
metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions from
being released into the environment since coming
online. The project displaces fossil fuel-fired
power plants and reduces an estimated 244,224
tons of CO2e per year. This project is verified
under the Verra standard.
