Good News for Minas Gerais – the oil company Shell registered the license for the photovoltaic plants – Aquarii I, II and III – in the municipality of Brasilândia de Minas. Together, the three projects will have a solar capacity of 150 MW. Amid the Collapse of Oil Costs, Shell Reduced $5 Billion in Investments and Suspended Stock Buybacks

The three plants are Shell’s first renewable energy project in Brazil.

Gabriela Oliveira, manager of New Energies at the company, confirmed in the second half of 2019 Shell’s interest in seeking free consumers for the development of photovoltaic energy projects in Brazil.

Investments

About three billion dollars will be invested annually in renewable energy projects by the oil company globally.

Despite wanting to expand investments starting next year, Shell plans to invest between $1 billion and $2 billion by 2030.

To remain competitive, the company committed to achieving carbon neutrality by 2050, matching the commitment made by BP.

“Society’s expectations have rapidly changed in the debate over climate change. Shell now needs to go further in its own ambitions: that’s why we expect to achieve neutrality in the energy market by 2050 or sooner. Society and our consumers expect nothing less,” stated the CEO of the company, Ben van Beurden, in a statement.

Neoenergia Receives Boost for Construction of Wind Energy Complex in Brazil’s Northeast

Iberdrola, through its Brazilian subsidiary Neoenergia, received a boost in the development of its mega wind energy complex in Oitis, in Northeast Brazil.

The Oitis complex will be located between the states of Piauí and Bahia, and its full commissioning is scheduled for mid-2022. Composed of 12 parks, the new enterprise will have a total installed capacity of 566.5 MW, making it the largest onshore wind project of Neoenergia in Latin America and the second in the world.

With 7.4 trillion tons of artificial snow pumped in 10 years, an extreme operation could stabilize the West Antarctic ice sheet and prevent a sea level rise of more than 3 meters, but it would require snow cannons, ocean water, and energy on an almost industrial scale at the end of the world.

In the Saudi Arabian desert, the world’s largest green hydrogen plant is 80% complete and will use 4 gigawatts of solar and wind energy to produce 600 tons of clean fuel per day when it opens in 2027.

The CEO of Honor in Spain says that smartphones will change with AI, foldables, and even robot phones; the component crisis is making cheap models more expensive in 2026 and shifting the focus to premium.

Hong Kong leads the ranking of the most expensive fuel in the world and is suffering from a global crisis.

A 183-million-year-old fossil shines like gold inside black rock in Germany, but a microscope revealed that the golden shine is not pyrite as everyone believed for decades: it is phosphate, and the difference changes everything.

Toyota is preparing the new 2028 Corolla Cross with 7 seats, an extended wheelbase of +15 cm, up to 4.65 m in length, hybrid with 100 km in electric mode, more efficient 1.5 and 2.0 turbo engines, and Safety Sensing 4.0 technology with AI and remote updates.

Giant refrigerator arrives in Ceará with a new factory to slaughter 1,000 cattle per day and promises to shake up the livestock industry in the state.

Only 25% believe in Brazil’s title at the 2026 World Cup, the lowest level of optimism in the historical series and a sign of a crisis in national confidence.
