Atlas Renewable Energy Started the Operation of 192 MW in Solar Plants in the Municipality of Arinos (MG), Consolidating the Advance of Solar Energy in the Country and Boosting the Sustainable Energy Transition.

Solar energy continues to advance in Brazil with the operation of new photovoltaic plants in the state of Minas Gerais. Atlas Renewable Energy, one of the leading companies in the sector, received authorization from the National Electric Energy Agency (Aneel) to initiate the generation tests of 192.4 MW of power across four solar plants located in the municipality of Arinos.

The plants — Draco Solar 1, 2, 5, and 6 — are part of a significant movement to expand solar energy in the country. The projects were previously owned by Shell Brasil and were acquired by Atlas in March of last year, reinforcing the company’s commitment to sustainable growth and the decarbonization of the Brazilian energy matrix.

Aneel Authorizes Over 215 MW in New Operations

The authorizations from Aneel, published in the edition of the Official Gazette of the Union on October 20, represent a milestone for the advancement of solar energy and other renewable sources in the country. In total, more than 215 MW were authorized to begin operation in different generation modalities.

Advancement of Micro and Minigeneration Strengthens the Role of Distributed Solar Energy

Another highlight was the expansion of micro and minigeneration distributed (MMGD), which continues to democratize access to solar energy in the country. Centro de Ensino São Lucas University, in Porto Velho (RO), received authorization to initiate the commercial operation of six generating units of the AFYA photovoltaic plant, an important step for the academic and sustainable use of clean energy.

In Santa Catarina, Pirâmide Pré-Moldados, an industry located in Biguaçu, was also authorized to start testing its solar plant Pirâmide APE, increasing the adoption of renewable sources in the industrial sector. These advancements show how solar energy is becoming increasingly present in different segments of the Brazilian economy.

With the growth of clean sources, the trading market is also expanding. Aneel authorized Green Energy Trader and PCH Ciao Energia to operate as trading agents in the Electric Energy Trading Chamber (CCEE).

This movement reinforces the dynamism of the sector and the importance of public policies that ensure regulatory security and stimulate investments in solar energy projects, which are essential for energy transition and reducing carbon emissions in Brazil.

With 1,000 buses sent abroad, the Brazilian manufacturer consolidates the strength of national technology and takes on a leading role in public transportation across all of Latin America.

More than 1,500 Chinese workers transformed an entire railway station in just one night and reduced a 7-hour journey to 90 minutes with a high-speed line of 200 km/h.

Brazilian city becomes a global destination after attracting tourists who travel up to 10,000 km to visit a sanctuary with 11 giant saints up to 10 meters tall, open 24 hours and located along a highway in SP.

JBL Flip Essential 3 SE is launched with 30W of power (20W + 10W), Bluetooth 5.4, Auracast for multiple connections, IP67 water and dust resistance, up to 12 hours of battery life, and a price of approximately R$ 660 in China.
