Yacht Carbon Offset

Owning or operating a superyacht comes with immense privileges, but it also brings significant responsibilities. Luxury vessels are inherently high-emission assets, consuming fuel and generating greenhouse gases that contribute to climate change. For yacht owners, captains, and charter companies committed to sustainability, carbon offsetting is one of the most effective ways to take meaningful action. By investing in verified renewable energy projects, it is possible to counteract the impact of emissions while simultaneously supporting local communities and promoting sustainable development. In the Dominican Republic, the Cumayasa 1 and Cumayasa 2 Solar Power Farms offer precisely this opportunity. Rising above the plains of La Romana, Cumayasa harnesses the power of the Caribbean sun to generate clean, reliable electricity for the national grid. By displacing fossil fuel-based power, these solar farms prevent an estimated 138,385 tonnes of CO₂e emissions annually, which is enough t...

Rising above the rugged hills of Loma Buena Vista in Enriquillo is the Larimar Wind Project , a flagship renewable energy project in the Dominican Republic. With a total installed capacity of 97.8 MW, generated through 29 high-performance Vestas wind turbines, the project supplies clean, reliable electricity to the country’s National Interconnected Electrical System and demonstrates how renewable infrastructure can deliver climate, community and economic benefits at scale. A two-phase project with one ambitious goal Larimar was built in two major phases, representing a combined investment of US$220 million by EGE Haina . Phase I (Commissioned in 2016 and inaugurated in March 2016) 15 Vestas V 112 turbines Capacity of 3.3 MW each Total installed capacity of 49.5 MW Phase II (Commissioned in 2018 and inaugurated in December 2018) 14 Vestas V 117 turbines, each 150 metres tall Capacity of 3.45 MW each Total installed capacity of 48.3 MW Together, these 29 turbines harness the region’s str...
