With the financing, Auren Energy will be able to accelerate recovery, adjustment, and modernization works at the Cajuína II wind complexes, located in the municipality of Bodó, which have been in operation since the second half of 2024.

The funds will be specifically directed to the SPEs São Ricardo 01 (Cajuína B19), with a planned investment of R$ 172,933,846.67, and São Ricardo 02 (Cajuína B20), which will receive R$ 212,725,541.75. Both projects have a deadline for execution until July 1, 2029.

The BNDES financing is composed of resources from the Climate Fund (R$ 159.5 million) and the Finem program (R$ 40.4 million), demonstrating alignment with sustainable development initiatives.

Mateus Ferreira, Vice President of Finance and Investor Relations at Auren Energy, highlighted the importance of the operation: “It reinforces our financial discipline in capital management, focusing on accelerating the company’s deleveraging sustainably,” he stated.

This strategy underscores Auren Energy’s focus on robust financial management combined with sustainable growth.

Future Of Energy In The Northeast: Connectivity And National Coverage

The injection of R$ 200 million from BNDES into Auren Energy underscores the financial sector’s confidence in the potential of wind energy in RN.

Rio Grande do Norte, known for its constant and strong winds, has established itself as a wind energy hub in Brazil, attracting investments and creating jobs in the production chain.

The expansion of these wind farms not only benefits the environment by reducing dependence on fossil sources but also promotes regional development.

The Cajuína B19 and B20 wind farms are strategically connected to the Castanha substation (34.5/500 kV) via a 500 kV transmission line of approximately 23 kilometers.

From this intermediate substation, another 500 kV transmission line, about 89 km long, carries energy to the Açu III substation, ensuring the efficient flow of generated energy.

Auren Energy reinforces its leadership and innovation role in the renewable energy market, positioning itself ahead of the transformations that will shape Brazil’s energy future.

Operating in nine Brazilian states, the company has 39 assets and a total installed capacity of 8.8 GW, derived from wind, solar, and hydropower sources, consolidating its coverage and diversity in the national energy matrix.
