Engie’s Strategy For The Future Of Solar Energy In Brazil

A giant printer called the “Ferrari” of concrete has landed in Latin America and can already build a 120-square-meter house in just 48 hours, making the traditional construction site look like something from the last century.

Great Atlantic Sargassum Belt has ceased to be a climatic phenomenon and has become a biological system that feeds on itself, with 8,000 kilometers in length, 37 million tons of algae, and scientists confirm that it is now permanent.

Brazil will harvest a record crop of up to 357 million tons of grains, but it does not have the capacity to store a large part of it. The storage deficit has reached the highest level in history and is equivalent to almost the entire production of Argentina.

She started by collecting oyster shells from restaurants and today she has already accumulated more than 10 tons to restore reefs, recover coastal habitats, and demonstrate how a common waste can become a tool for ocean conservation.

Scientists have discovered that the Earth recycles its own continents in the depths, dragging pieces of crust down during plate collisions and returning them later as magma, in a mechanism called relamination that has helped build the continents for billions of years.

Turkey is building a billion-dollar shortcut to channel billions of dollars by sea with a 45 km long canal, 275 meters wide and 20.75 meters deep, which promises to relieve the Bosphorus amid the crisis in the Strait of Hormuz.

China sends to Africa an 800-ton, 130-meter underground machine to open 9.7 km in a copper mine in Zambia, replacing drilling with explosives and sustaining an annual production of 60,000 tons of the metal in a new era of African digital mining.

Maranhão inaugurates an unprecedented structure for the reuse of fish waste and bets on technology developed by Codevasf and UFMA to create high value-added products with potential impact on the bioeconomy.

Volkswagen adopted the four-day week more than 30 years ago, reduced the working hours to 28.8 hours, and showed that working less could also save jobs.

In a single year, scientists from a major ocean census cataloged over eleven hundred marine species that no one had ever described before.

China returned Brazilian ships with soybeans and is now tightening rules for food from Brazil, creating a new requirement effective today and placing 96,000 foreign exporters under strict supervision by the Chinese customs GACC.

Solar energy should lead the planet by 2035, but artificial intelligence keeps fossil fuels alive.

Spanish city uses an aquifer hidden 11 meters deep as an urban ‘refrigerator’ for almost 30 years, saves 52% of energy in a public building, and now resorts to AI to prevent the solution from exhausting its potential

Canada is preparing a billion-dollar megaproject with 3.5 GW of wind energy, up to 530 turbines, green hydrogen, and ammonia for export, in a bid that could place the country at the center of the new global race for clean fuels.

France launches tenders for 12 GW in renewable energy, bets on offshore wind and imposes restrictions on Chinese components to accelerate energy sovereignty, protect European factories, and reduce dependence on oil and gas amid global pressure.
