The Largest Solar Plant in Latin America, With a Capacity of 1.2 GW, Supplying Over 1.5 Million Homes With Solar Power

Solar energy is one of the most sustainable and cleanest sources of energy in the world. Unlike other energy sources, such as fossil fuels, solar energy does not emit polluting gases or use scarce natural resources. For this reason, large solar farms are being built around the world, some so big that they can be seen from space.

Meet the New Largest Photovoltaic Farm in Brazil and One of the Largest in the World

The Largest Photovoltaic Plant in Latin America

Recently, Brazil inaugurated the largest solar plant in Latin America and one of the largest in the world. This farm has a generation capacity of 1.2 gigawatts (GW), equivalent to supplying a city with over 1.5 million residences. The project was carried out by Elera Renováveis and consists of 20 solar parks spread over an area of 3,000 hectares. This plant is located in the city of Janaúba, about 550 km north of Belo Horizonte. Janaúba is known for having high solar radiation and low cloud cover, making it one of the best regions in Brazil for solar energy generation.

Other Large Photovoltaic Plants in Brazil

In addition to the Janaúba plant, Brazil has other important solar farms. The second largest is located in São Gonçalo do Gurguéia, in the state of Piauí, with a capacity of 864 megawatts (MW) and an investment of 2.2 billion reais. On the other hand, the third largest plant is located in Juazeiro, in the state of Bahia. These projects demonstrate the growth and potential of Brazil in the field of solar energy. Besides being a clean and sustainable source of energy, solar power also drives economic development and job creation in the country.

Energia **** essa. Painel solar é interessante pra aproveitar áreas sem utilidades como telhados e faixadas. Agora, a terra já tão precionada pela agropecuária tem que receber mais esse tipo de ideia ****.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

Australia prepares to dredge 96.5 million m³ in Moreton Bay to deepen, widen, and realign channels of the Port of Brisbane, in a project of up to 25 years designed to accommodate larger ships and enhance maritime safety and regional port efficiency.

Study solves great ancient mystery: remains of Philip II, father of Alexander the Great, are identified in Vergina and resolves the enigma of the Macedonian royal tombs that had lasted half a century.

Larger than the Toyota Hilux and with a towing capacity of 3.5 tons, the new MG U9 2026 features a 2.5 turbodiesel engine, 520 Nm, 4×4 traction with three locks, and an almost full-size build.

Another Chinese giant prepares to enter Brazil: BAIC bets on the Arcfox T1, an electric hatchback that promises to compete with the BYD Dolphin, BYD Dolphin Mini, and Geely EX2 with a larger size and a range of up to 425 km.

The “freshwater lid” that worries scientists: Greenland melts, could weaken Atlantic currents and is already being monitored by robots, satellites, and artificial intelligence before altering the climate in the coming decades.

Government prepares billion-dollar discount on electricity bills: Aneel will return R$ 5.5 billion to consumers in the North, Northeast, Mato Grosso, Minas Gerais, and Espírito Santo in the form of reduced energy tariffs.

Scientists in Saudi Arabia create an “electricity-free refrigerator” that uses a chemical reaction to lower the temperature from 25°C to 3.6°C in 20 minutes and then uses the sun itself to restart the system without a compressor, outlet, or generator.
