Artesanias y Ecoaventuras La Cumbre

Es un proyecto ecoturistico que incluye canopy, senderos dentro de un bosque tropical, que incluye granja de Tilapia, frutas y verduras producidas por acuaponia, carpinterìa de muebles tipicos y aldea de artesanos. Ubicado a una hora de puerto sobre el Atlantico (Guatemala), donde atracan los cruceros de turistas. Lo mas importante es perpetuar la captura de CO2 y la biodeversidad por medio del ecoturismo. Se crearan muchas plazas de trabajo para gente de escasos recursos.

CLEAN ELECTRICITY TO THE MARGINALISED AREAS AT HALF KPLC'S RATES

Hi! Am James Orery,Graduate in Mechanical Engineering and I participated in the 2007 BID Challenge with a proposal on the above topic. Its about an Appropriate Technology that will take(generate) Electricity to the rural and arid areas in Kenya and any where in the world to support the cottage Agribusiness industries, rural market centres, Rice and wheat mills, homes among others.It will help save trees cut for cooking and green house gas emissions by cutting down Kerosine and diesel used in rural, reduce use of woodfuel and logs cut by KPLC for power distribution (Electricity poles).It will deliver electricity at half the rates charged by Kenya Power and Lightling Company (KPLC)

It will also be used by companies such as Cement and Beer companies whose nature of operation do not allow them to produce power from boilers and this will reduce their production costs significantly due to reduced energy costs hence high profitability.

lt will also be able to stand as an Independent power producer project to KPLC that do not rely on diesel for electricity generation as done the existing ones.It be partnered with existing International Independent power providing companies such as Aggreko International.

I wish to get more relevant information on partnership and financing from your institution as well as others that have international reputation, are serious and with interest in Energy, Environmental,Poverty reduction and Employment.
