Complex Will Supply 580 Thousand Households With 109.2 MW Of Installed Capacity
On Tuesday, May 21st, Aliança Energia began the operation of the Acauã Wind Complex, located in Rio Grande do Norte. With 26 wind turbines, each with an installed capacity of 4.2 MW, the complex is distributed across four wind farms in the municipalities of Santana do Matos, Lagoa Nova, São Vicente, and Tenente Laurentino Cruz.
The inauguration event took place at wind turbine BST 11, part of the Acauã II Park, and was attended by state and municipal authorities, community leaders, the Military Police, and representatives of the Administrative Council of Aliança, the Brazilian Wind Energy Association (ABEEólica), and the companies involved in the construction, such as Alvarez & Marsal, WEG, Elastri, Engelmig, Afaplan, and SNEF Brasil.
