In Sho’llet Forest, Peru, the contingent valuation survey method was used to assess low-income people’s willingness to pay for ES, especially in addressing the impact of construction of high voltage electricity towers on the forest. After clearance thirteen years ago, no vegetation has grown in the cleared path.
Lessons learnt are not yet available. However this study may have contributed to the methodological development for quantifying willingness to pay in PES mechanisms.
