The company from the J&F group, Âmbar Energia, is about to become the fourth largest natural gas generation park in Brazil with the acquisition of the thermoelectric plant in Araucária (484 MW) in Paraná. The transaction was conducted by Âmbar, which signed a contract with Copel to acquire 81.2% of the plant for R$ 320.7 million. With this acquisition, the company will strengthen its position in the gas power generation market in Brazil.

Âmbar already owns the UTE Cuiabá plants, located in Mato Grosso, and UTE Uruguaiana, located in Rio Grande do Sul, on the border with Argentina. Now, the company will expand its presence and generating capacity by adding the thermoelectric plant of Araucária to its portfolio. With this acquisition, Âmbar will reinforce its position as one of the leading natural gas generation operators in the country, contributing to the supply of electricity in a sustainable and efficient manner.

Âmbar Energia and the Acquisition of Araucária

With the purchase of Araucária, Âmbar now holds a park of 1.653 GW of granted power under its management — surpassing Gás Natural Açu (GNA), among Prumo, bp, Siemens, which operates in partnership with SPIC Brasil at the UTE GNA I (1.338 GW) at the Porto do Açu (RJ).

The Largest Gas Power Generation Parks in Brazil

See below the owners of the 10 largest gas generation parks in Brazil:

Petrobras (5.3 GW)
Eneva (3.6 GW)
Eletrobras (1.795 GW)*
Âmbar Energia (1.653 GW)
GNA (1.338 GW)
EDF Norte Fluminense (826 MW)
Karpowership (568 MW)
Marlim Azul (565 MW) *
Neoenergia (550 MW)
Termo Norte Energia (349 MW)

With the expansion of its thermoelectric generation park, Âmbar Energia reinforces its presence in the energy market. The acquisition of Araucária represents a significant milestone for Âmbar Energia, increasing its installed capacity by 20%. With this, Âmbar Energia consolidates itself as one of the main companies in the sector, directly competing with giants like Petrobras, Eneva, and Eletrobras.

Additionally, Âmbar Energia surpasses Gás Natural Açu (GNA) in installed capacity, strengthening its position in the market. The UTE GNA I, located at the Porto do Açu (RJ), is one of the country’s main thermoelectric plants, and Âmbar Energia now stands out as a major competitor in this segment.

With a diversified portfolio of energy generation assets, Âmbar Energia reaffirms its commitment to the expansion of the electric sector in Brazil. The company has been distinguished for investing in thermal generation projects in different regions of the country, including thermal generation in various regions, including Mato Grosso and Paraná. Furthermore, Âmbar Energia has participation in ventures at the frontier with Argentina, expanding its operations to international markets.

Âmbar Energia’s investments also extend to the renewable energy segment, demonstrating a commitment to sustainability and the diversification of the energy matrix. The company has sought to expand its activity in the natural gas market, exploring growth opportunities and contributing to the country’s economic and energy development.

With the incorporation of Araucária into its portfolio, Âmbar Energia reaffirms its position as one of the main players in the electric sector in Brazil. The company has demonstrated its ability to compete in a dynamic and challenging market, standing out as a reference in thermoelectric generation. Âmbar Energia continues to drive the energy sector forward, promoting innovation and excellence in its operations.

The Largest Gas Power Generation Parks 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.

A British company has installed in the middle of the ocean the world’s first floating platform that generates electricity 24 hours a day from the temperature difference between the surface and the depths of the Atlantic, without relying on wind or sun.

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.

Engineers had to pour concrete mixed with tons of ice throughout entire nights in the Dubai desert to erect the Burj Khalifa; any carelessness could clog the pipes half a mile high.

The James Webb telescope spotted a planet 700 light-years from Earth with mornings full of sand clouds and nights with clear skies, the temperature difference between the two hemispheres reaches an impressive 170 degrees.

Air bubbles from 3 million years ago extracted from Antarctic ice reveal that the current level of CO₂ has already surpassed that of the ancient, warm world, when the sea was up to 20 meters higher and there were no factories or cars burning fuel.

Brazil went to China to seek money and technology to reinvent TV and bring the internet to places where fiber does not reach. The mission negotiated with the BRICS Bank led by Dilma and paved the way for a Chinese rival of Starlink to connect the Amazon.

About 150 workers are driving, one by one, 4,585 BYD electric cars off a 220-meter ship at the Port of Itajaí. The 48-hour mega-operation is the largest shipment from the Chinese automaker in Santa Catarina this year.

Iceland is going to lower a drill five kilometers to reach rock at 400 degrees and try to extract clean energy on a scale that a common well cannot achieve.
