Energy Carbon Offsets
Energy Carbon Offset Projects
Energy carbon offset projects reduce emissions from energy use. This can happen by transitioning away from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources, such as wind or solar, or converting waste to energy. Alternatively, energy projects may reduce the amount of fuel consumed by supporting the adoption of energy-efficient technologies. Carbon offsets purchased from our Climate Impact Portfolio support a range of projects, including energy initiatives, forestry, blue and teal carbon, and innovative climate technology projects.
Types of Energy Carbon Offset Projects
A quick look at the main types of energy carbon offset projects and how each helps reduce or remove emissions.
Renewable Energy
Prevents greenhouse gases by replacing fossil fuels with clean, renewable energy sources, such as wind, hydropower, or solar energy.
Energy Efficiency
Reduces CO2₂ emissions by improving energy use in household appliances or in infrastructure like buildings and transportation systems.
Waste-to-Energy
Reduces emissions by converting non-recyclable waste into usable energy, primarily electricity or heat, through various technologies.
