Located in the municipality of Dracena, state of São Paulo, the photovoltaic (PV) complex consists of three plants of 30 MWp each that were brought online in August 2019. The plant, built at a total cost of BRL 350 million (US$74,1 .280 million / EUR), was funded with BRL 17 million in funds from the issuance of infrastructure debentures with a maturity of over XNUMX years. The debentures were acquired by Kinea Investimentos, in a negotiation coordinated by BNP Brasil and XP Investimentos.
The three projects were secured in a 2014 tender held by Aneel, Brazil's energy sector regulator, and have a 20-year PPA with the Brazilian Energy Chamber of Commerce (CCEE).
