Iminyaka esi-8 eyadlulayo safunda ukuba iCosta Rica yayi kuxhomekeka 99% ye renovables verdes ukuba libe lelinye lamazwe asingise kwikamva elicocekileyo nelizinzileyo. Into ebalulekileyo ukuba ukwazi shiya lo mhlaba uye kwenye into ebhetele kwabo baya kuhlala kuyo kwixesha elizayo. Kungenxa yesi sizathu sokuba ngoDisemba wonyaka ophelileyo uthotho lwezivumelwano kwafikelelwa phakathi kwamazwe amaninzi, nangona kubonakala ngathi yonke into ihamba kancinci.
ICosta Rica ingaphezulu kwe iparadesi eluhlaza yabakhenkethi, Kodwa ngomnye woovulindlela bamandla ahlaziyekayo. Isizwe esincinci sakuMbindi Merika sivelise iipesenti ezili-100 zombane kumbane ohlaziyekayo kangangeentsuku ezili-121, kwaye kubonakala ngathi oko kuyakuqhubeka ukwenza njalo. Ilizwe, elitsalile amandla acocekileyo njengenye yeenjongo zalo, linethemba lokuqhubeka nokuba nonyaka omangalisayo ngaphandle kwezibaso.
Ngeentsuku ezili-121 apho amandla ahlaziyekayo asebenze eCosta Rica ukuya ulibale malunga neefosili, iya kuba isondele ekuzalisekiseni injongo yayo. ICosta Rica isendleleni yokuphinda irekhodi elisetiweyo kunye nemveliso yamandla ahlaziyekayo kunyaka ophelileyo, ngeepesenti ezingama-99 zombane welizwe. Oku kuthetha ukuba iintsuku ezingama-285 zizonke apho ukusetyenziswa kwezibaso kwakuphetshwa.
ICosta Rica iyakwazi ukusebenzisa ubuninzi bamandla ahlaziyekayo anayo ngenxa yayo Imozulu ekhethekileyo kunye nomhlaba. Uninzi lwemithombo yamandla acocekileyo ivela kwi-hydrological, ngenxa yenkqubo enkulu yemilambo kunye nemvula yesiphango yetropiki. Ilanga, umoya, i-biomass kunye namandla e-geothermal nawo adlala indima ephambili.
Eli lizwe lilindele ukuba kwisithuba seminyaka emihlanu liya kube likhululeke kwii-fuels. Oku kuya kubangelwa Utyalomali olukhulu kumandla ombane noqikelelo lweemvula ezinkulu kule minyaka imbalwa izayo.
