Gold Standard

Carbon Credits

We support a diverse portfolio of Gold Standard certified projects to spread risk while maximizing impact. Each project is chosen to meet the highest standards of sustainability, additionality, and permanence, and to align with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Our Gold Standard Portfolio

ClimateHero focuses on projects where the climate impact is greatest and the transition is most urgent. By supporting international projects, we make sure contributions reach the regions where they make the biggest difference, both in cutting emissions and in driving sustainable development.

Safe Water - Uganda

Safe Water - Uganda

Today, 81% of Uganda’s population lacks access to clean water, forcing families to boil unsafe water with firewood or coal. This leads to deforestation and increased CO₂ emissions. By investing in clean water solutions, we reduce the need for firewood, protect forests, improve health, and create new opportunities for local communities.

Cookstoves - Nigeria

Cookstoves - Nigeria

Today, many households and small businesses in Nigeria rely on inefficient charcoal stoves, leading to high fuel consumption, increased emissions, and health risks. By distributing energy-efficient cookstoves, the project reduces fuel consumption by up to 50%, lowering CO₂ emissions, improving health, and providing economic savings for thousands of families.

Solar Water Heating - India

Solar Water Heating - India

Today, 90% of people in west Indian cities use direct electricity to generate hot water — a process heavily dependent on fossil fuels. Since hot water accounts for 20–30% of household electricity use, the climate impact is significant. By distributing solar water heaters installed directly on household roofs, the project reduces emissions and energy costs for thousands of families.

Geothermal Energy - Turkey

Geothermal Energy - Turkey

In Turkey’s Aydin province, geothermal energy is now being harvested. It is a great complement to wind and solar power, as it is not weather-dependent. Turkey has a growing energy demand where the majority of the energy supply is still generated by fossil fuels. The geothermal energy plant helps to phase out coal, oil and natural gas.

Solar Power - India

Solar Power - India

Across India, solar power installations are replacing electricity previously generated by fossil fuels. India's rapid economic growth has created surging energy demand, with coal still dominating the energy mix. By accelerating the shift to clean solar energy, the project helps phase out coal, oil and fossil gas — reducing emissions while expanding access to affordable, reliable electricity for communities across the country.

Methane Digesters - China

Methane Digesters - China

Installing biogas digesters fueled by pig manure, for local households. This is an extremely effective project since it both eliminates the households’ use of coal and prevents methane gas (which is 30 times more detrimental than CO2) from the pig manure from escaping into the atmosphere. Besides the positive climate impact, the project also enables better air quality and new green jobs.

Wind Power - India

Wind Power - India

The projects builds and installs windmills to generate electricity in western India, which is currently heavily dependent on fossil fuels for electricity generation. Apart from the large climate benefit, it also creates green jobs and a safer method of providing electricity.
