Environmental Stewardship T E S L A SOL AR EN ERGY PA RTN E RSH I P We are proud to announce an exciting alliance with Tesla to implement a visionary initiative that will generate renewable solar energy to power the entire community of Twin Dolphin as well as set a new standard of environmental care in the Baja region.
Already well underway, Ohana has made a significant investment to implement a multi-phased initiative that will leverage Tesla energy technology to produce renewable solar energy for the community. The project consists of a six-system portfolio installed throughout the property, including installations at several Maravilla amenities, as well as a central ground-mount site that will eventually be installed adjacent to Twin Dolphin’s desalination plant. Once completed, this state-of-the-art solar panel and Tesla battery energy storage system will generate almost all Twin Dolphin’s (Montage, Maravilla and Twin Dolphin Club) public area electric consumption.
AU D U B ON INT E R NAT IONA L P ROG R A M As part of our commitment to environmental stewardship, Twin Dolphin Club is participating in the Audubon International Cooperative Sanctuary Program (ACSP). The ACSP is an award-winning education and certification program that helps golf courses and communities protect the environment and preserve the natural heritage of the game of golf. This program will enhance the valuable natural areas and wildlife habitat of Twin Dolphin by improving efficiency, minimizing potentially harmful impacts of golf operations, and serves as a vital resource for the course.

system will generate clean back-up power for the community, allowing the system to run completely off-grid as needed in the event of power outages due to storms or natural disasters. The back-up power supply also relieves the burden on the local power grid as the Baja region of Mexico experiences energy shortages with increased development, even transferring additional energy back to the local power grid of Los Cabos.
By implementing and documenting the full complement of environmental management practices, our course strives to earn designation as a Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary. Receiving this certification demonstrates leadership as a steward of the environment and rewards environmental achievements within our community and golf course. 8
