Description
Description | The Chile Hornitos Hydropower Project aims to help mitigate global climate change by facilitating the use of market-based mechanisms sanctioned under the Kyoto Protocol through support of clean energy projects. The Netherlands Clean Development Mechanism Facility, through the Bank's carbon Facility Unit, will purchase carbon emissions reductions as they are created through renewable energy-based electricity production under a contract analogous to a power purchase agreement. The project components consist of extending and upgrading the voltage of the existing 66kV transmission line to 220 kV; and making carbon purchases. |
