Banco do Brasil inaugura usina de energia solar

Seja o primeiro a reagir!

The Solar Power Plant Was Inaugurated Last Thursday (12) in Porteirinha, Northern Minas Gerais by Banco do Brasil (BB)

The first Brazilian banking institution to have a solar power plant is Banco do Brasil (BB), and this could generate over 80 million in 12 years for the national territory.

More Than 19,000 Solar Panels

According to the project CEO of Banco do Brasil, the project was tendered and constructed by the solar energy company EDP, the site where Banco do Brasil’s solar power plant has about 19,000 solar panels. This would be equivalent to supplying a plantation with over 7,000 trees.

Future Project for 6 New Solar Power Plants by 2021

Banco do Brasil (BB) stated that this is just the beginning, and by the year 2021, Brazil will have more than 6 new solar power plants, with these new projects located in Pará, Ceará, Bahia, Goiás, and the Federal District.

A Brazilian municipality relies on 97% federal money, has 14 secretariats, 11 councilors, and a budget of R$ 131 million, but only 915 people are formally employed, and no one knows how the other 25,000 live.

Japan teaches the world how giant arched gates weighing up to 530 tons protect Osaka from devastating typhoons, block storm surges in minutes, and drain 330 m³/s to prevent urban flooding.

One of the biggest mudslides ever recorded on the Trans-Amazon Highway trapped trucks, cars, and motorcycles at the same spot for three consecutive days while a tractor with a winch tried to free them one by one under the rain.
