The Corvaceira project, by Mota-Engil ATIV, has as its long-term objective the recovery of 5,000 hectares of forest in mainland Portugal, through reforestation and ecosystem recovery projects. The carbon sequestration project is scheduled to have a minimum duration of 40 years. To achieve this goal, 72,583 trees will be planted, chosen in a mixed way, aiming to maximize biodiversity and promote ecosystem resilience.
The project was developed as a way to provide Mota-Engil ATIV’s customers in the maintenance area with ways to offset their carbon footprint, through the acquisition of certified carbon credits registered on an internationally renowned platform. It is expected that with this project, 68,085 tCO2 will be sequestered.
