BNDES Took Out a Loan of R$ 1 Billion with the Government of Japan. The Objective Is to Finance Clean Energy Projects in Brazil, Such as Solar, Wind, and Energy Efficiency Initiatives

The National Bank for Economic and Social Development (BNDES) announced on Tuesday (25) the signing of a loan of US$ 190 million, equivalent to about R$ 1.077 billion. The amount will be used to finance renewable energy transmission projects and biofuels that contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in Brazil.

The operation was finalized in Tokyo during President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva’s visit to Japan.

The funds were obtained in partnership with the Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC), Citibank N.A. Tokyo Branch and The Nishi-Nippon City Bank Ltd.

International Partnership for Green Economy

According to the director of productive development, innovation, and foreign trade at BNDES, José Luís Gordon, the partnership between the institutions strengthens the relationship between Brazil and Japan.

He emphasized that both countries have the potential to work together in the so-called green economy.

“This partnership addresses an important area, which is the green economy, where both countries have a lot to work on together, such as in the development of sustainable fuels, like SAF, critical minerals, sustainable mobility, and renewable energy,” he stated in an official statement.

The raised funds will be used in energy transmission projects and also in renewable energy sources. This includes small hydropower, solar, wind, and biomass energy ventures.

Expansion of International Financing

The president of BNDES, Aloizio Mercadante, stated that the institution has been seeking to expand its operations with international financial entities.

The goal, he indicated, is to diversify funding sources and increase investments in strategic areas in the country, with a focus on renewable energy generation.

“BNDES has strengthened its partnership with international financial institutions with the aim of diversifying its funding and increasing investments in Brazil, especially in strategic areas such as renewable energy generation. JBIC is one of BNDES’s main partners. Since the 1960s, 18 loan contracts have been signed for approximately R$ 18 billion (US$ 3.2 billion),” Mercadante said in a statement.

In addition to the loan, BNDES also signed a memorandum of understanding with JBIC. The document formalizes cooperation between the institutions in supporting sectors deemed strategic, such as mineral resources and sustainable energy.

At just 14 years old, a boy creates a system without energy, using steel pipes buried in the ground, that irrigates seedlings with moisture from the air, to combat the water scarcity threatening reforestation in northern China.

Where there was only sand and wind at 40 degrees, China built a megacity of 500,000 inhabitants with farms, wineries, and universities in the middle of the desert using melted glacier water from hundreds of kilometers away.

At over 8,800 meters above sea level, the summit of Mount Everest is made up of rocks that originated at the bottom of an ocean about 500 million years ago and were pushed to the highest point on Earth by the collision of tectonic plates.

Giant of the winds in Rio Grande do Norte: Serra do Tigre Wind Complex receives new investments and accelerates the expansion of clean energy generation to supply millions of Brazilian homes.

The Federal District bets on innovation and sustainability by launching a hydrogen-powered bus on a new tourist route, promising to reduce emissions and transform the urban experience for residents and visitors.

Archaeologists have discovered a mysterious, narrow, and unusual underground tunnel in Saxony-Anhalt within a prehistoric enclosure, and the most striking detail is that it was intentionally sealed.

In the driest desert in the world, scientists and farmers are growing lettuce amid tons of sand using water taken from the air, in a project that transforms fog into crops and reveals a surprising way to make life flourish where almost nothing survives.

Petrobras reaffirms its commitment to the market and ensures that it will carry out the energy transition safely to maintain national sovereignty.

A study confirms that the natural gas sector will reduce greenhouse gas emissions in Brazil by 0.5% and accelerate the energy transition by 2026.

Petrobras implements a severe adjustment and confirms a 55% increase in the price of aviation kerosene with a proposal for installment payments for the companies.

The German economist Wolf-Peter Schill has no doubts: “Electric cars are already far superior to cars with internal combustion engines.”
