New Contract in the Renewable Energy Market: BP and Casa dos Ventos Sign 5-Year Partnership

The British oil and gas giant BP signed an off-take agreement with the Brazilian developer Casa dos Ventos to purchase electricity generated by the Rio do Vento wind complex, which will be another investment in the renewable energy market.

Under the power purchase agreement (PPA), BP’s energy trading business, Energy Trader, will receive a supply of electricity for 15 years. The PPA will take effect in 2023.

Casa dos Ventos is currently working on the construction of the wind farm in an area in the state of Rio Grande do Norte. Once operational, the complex is expected to have over 1 GW of total installed capacity.

Casa dos Ventos also announced a new contract for wind turbines with Danish manufacturer Vestas, for 80 machines that will total 360 megawatts in capacity.

The turbines will be for the Babilônia project in Bahia, with delivery scheduled to start in the second half of 2022. Commissioning is estimated for the second quarter of 2023. Casa dos Ventos states that a large part of the production from the plant will be traded with companies in the free energy market.

Every time a river flows into the sea, an amount of energy equivalent to a 120-meter waterfall is silently wasted, but Japan has just inaugurated the world’s first power plant that captures this waste and transforms it into electricity 24 hours a day without sun, wind, or fuel.

Silicon Valley bets on a 100-hour battery that uses carbon and oxygen to store renewable energy for days and could turn a little-known chemical system into an alternative to critical metal batteries to tackle prolonged blackouts.

Canadian engineers want to compress air in underground caverns and build plants of up to 500 MW that function as giant lungs to store renewable energy for hours and stabilize entire electrical grids.

British engineers cool air until it turns into liquid, store energy for weeks, and create an “invisible battery” capable of sustaining the power grid when the wind stops and the sun disappears.
