Energy & Environment

01 Blue-Carbon Marine Forest Project

Blue carbon refers to carbon absorbed by ocean plants and tidal flats. These coastal areas can take in carbon up to 50 times faster than land forests, offering a strong solution for cutting emissions. Next to the Wando Converter Station site, we planted 150,000 seagrass shoots over 3 hectares to create a “sea forest.” This project will help bring marine life back to the area and support our journey toward carbon neutrality.
