GWP Supports Wind Energy Projects in India

As part of GWP’s continuous efforts to minimise the impacts and the carbon footprint of GWPO, the organisation has decided to support wind energy projects in India.

GWP’s environmental policy states that all necessary air travel should be climate compensated, and GWPO’s carbon offsetting is done by investing in selected Climate Neutral Group’s (CNG’s) sustainable energy projects.

CNG invests in the Indian wind energy projects because of the efficient reduction in CO2 emissions and the efficient provision of clean energy to families in isolated areas. The projects are certified according to the VCS standard which verifies the carbon credits each year.
