EcoProjects

Location, Location, Location.

EcoVoom was created with your community in mind. We believe local projects are important - not only to us, but to you as well. We're excited to begin supporting projects in your area and look forward to your feedback. As EcoVoom expands, we will continue to add clean energy projects in various local areas throughout the country.

Consumers and businesses in areas where we do not currently have a local clean energy package can still have a positive impact on the climate and balance their Carbon Footprints by purchasing our National Package option.

EcoVoom is also committed to supporting clean energy projects that are verifiable and certified. Our projects will include clean energy such as wind, biomass and solar, certain industrial, commercial, transportation and residential efficiency efforts where energy consumption is reduced or less carbon dioxide is emitted by modifying industrial processes and projects where carbon dioxide is captured and sequestered. To learn more about our certification process, please view our Verification Standards page.

Types of Clean Energy Projects

Wind

Wind power refers to the use of turbines to capture the kinetic energy from the wind to generate electricity.

Biomass

Biomass typically refers to the burning of plant material, animal waste, or human refuse to generate electricity. Biomass can also refer to the process where methane gas, which is naturally created from organic waste, is burned and used to generate electricity. The destruction of methane gas has a second benefit for the environment because methane is 22 times more dangerous than carbon dioxide as a greenhouse gas. Burning methane gas ensures that it does not enter the atmosphere and further contribute to Climate Change.

Solar

Solar power is a renewable energy source that uses solar panels to absorb radiation emitted by the sun in order to produce electricity.

Hydro Power

Hydro power refers to electricity created from moving water. This is typically done through the use of a dam that backs up a river into a canyon. The water is then released through the dam at a managed rate that is then used to generate electricity. Only low-impact hydro facilities that are under 30 megawatts are considered to be eco-friendly as they do not negatively impact indigenous animal species or landscapes.

Geothermal

Geothermal refers to using the heat deep in the Earth to generate electricity. Producers drill into the Earth to release steam and water that is naturally heated and then harnessed to power a turbine and generator thus creating electricity.
