In Total, the New Units of Wind Power Generation Have, Together, 20.8 Megawatts of Installed Capacity

Copel has kicked off its new project for wind power generation, with the commencement of six wind power generating parks at the Jandaíra wind complex in the state of Rio Grande do Norte. The new units have a total installed capacity of 20.8 megawatts, according to a document sent to the market this Monday (17).

The first wind turbines of the plants to enter commercial operation are part of the Jandaíra IV park and represent 23% of the total installed capacity. The other 19 wind turbines (73% of the total of 26) are still in testing, and the generated energy is being settled.

“The new wind farms are expected to enter commercial operation in a staggered manner by the end of 2022, more than two years before the deadline for the contracted supply delivery,” the company states.

New Wind Farm is Fully Owned by Copel

With 100% ownership by Copel GeT, the project is located in the municipality of Jandaíra and comprises four wind farms, totaling 90.1 MW of installed capacity and has financing from the Banco do Nordeste do Brasil (BNB) for about 50% of the planned investment.

“The start of operations of the plants reinforces Copel’s strategy for sustainable growth and commitment to creating value through investments in projects that contribute to the diversification and expansion of its portfolio through renewable energy sources,” the company declares.

When the 26 units of wind generation are in operation, along with the recent acquisition of the Aventura and Sant Rosa & Mundo Novo complexes, wind power generation will represent 17% of the total installed capacity of the Copel Group.

While an average building in London or New York takes three years to be completed, in China a 26-story tower went up in five days with about 100 workers, and the global modular construction market already moves US$ 95 billion per year.

A Chinese factory in Guangdong is assembling a humanoid robot every 30 minutes while Tesla, Figure, and Boston Dynamics still struggle to deliver 10 thousand per year.

Australia installs giant concrete structures on the seabed 800 meters from the shore to create an ocean intake for desalination that will draw in saltwater and produce 30 million liters of drinking water per day.

Secret chamber sealed 4,500 years ago found in the Pyramid of Khufu, and Hawass announces its opening to the world in 2026

A public school student single-handedly created a machine capable of treating water for up to 50 people using only solar energy. It was awarded third place at one of the most important science fairs in the world.

Germany installed vertical solar panels on a lake in Bavaria, and the result broke conventional logic: instead of producing energy at midday peak, the plant generates more early in the morning and in the evening, exactly when families turn on appliances and factories are in full swing.

While communities suffer from water scarcity and the advancing desert, women in Morocco use nets high up in the mountains to trap fog droplets, fill reservoirs, and transport drinking water through more than 10 km of piping.

Macaúba has ceased to be a pest in the cerrado and has become a billion-dollar bet to supply planes and trucks, with Mubadala eyeing R$ 15 billion, vegetable oil, degraded lands, and sustainable fuel that still depends on future commercial-scale harvesting.

Research vessel departs from Fortaleza this Sunday for a 35-day mission to map the Brazilian ocean floor and search for unknown marine species, two-ton robot on board can descend up to 6,500 meters deep.

China built a 300-meter horizontal skyscraper that connects four towers at a height of 250 meters, with a steel structure weighing 12,000 tons, equivalent to the Eiffel Tower, and it was assembled on the ground before being lifted with hydraulic systems.

Tiny watermelons, sweet and with red or orange flesh, can become a choice for those who want an individual fruit without waste and easy to produce.

Google builds the world’s largest iron-air battery in Minnesota with 300 MW and 30 GWh to store energy for 100 consecutive hours.

Small and flexible hydropower plants can be a game-changer for clean energy by generating electricity in previously overlooked rivers, without requiring large dams or aggressively altering the water flow.
