Investment Boosts Capacity of 39.7 MWp and Promotes Job Creation in Four States
AXS Energia, a company of the Roca group in the renewable energy sector, announced last Wednesday (May 22) that it has received an investment of US$ 31.3 million to finance the construction of 14 new photovoltaic solar plants in Brazil. However, AXS Energia plans to distribute the new solar plants across the states of Mato Grosso, Minas Gerais, São Paulo, and Paraná. This geographical expansion will allow more people and businesses to access clean and sustainable energy, contributing to the development of these regions and the reduction of the carbon footprint, with a total expected capacity of 39.7 MWp (megawatts-peak), according to the EPBR website.
In its long-term strategy, AXS Energia secured financing through a credit with funds from the CIFI and Triodos groups, coordinated by XP Investimentos. This initiative demonstrates AXS’s commitment to promoting clean and sustainable energy in Brazil, as well as significantly contributing to the economy and job creation in the regions where the plants will be installed.
Environmental and Economic Impact of Solar Plants
In addition to increasing solar energy generation capacity, AXS Energia expects a significant reduction in CO2 emissions. It is estimated that the new solar plants will help avoid the emission of 40 thousand tons of carbon dioxide annually. This reduction is crucial for the climate change mitigation efforts and reinforces the role of solar energy as a sustainable solution.

The construction of the new solar plants will also have a positive impact on the local economy, with the creation of more than 760 direct and indirect jobs. Eduardo Coutinho, commercial director of AXS Energia, highlighted the importance of this operation.
“This operation is an important step in AXS’s mission to promote clean and sustainable energy in Brazil through shared solar energy, in addition to generating jobs and benefiting the economies of the regions where the plants are located.”

Expansion and Future Investments
AXS Energia has an ambitious strategy for the future, with plans to invest R$ 1.5 billion by 2025 to increase its installed capacity to 302 MWp through 96 plants. The company has already conducted several fundraising activities to finance these projects. In 2022, AXS raised R$ 261 million, with R$ 221 million obtained through public offerings of real estate receivables certificates (CRI) and R$ 40 million through debentures. This strategy allowed the company to raise funds efficiently and diversely, contributing to its growth and development in the financial market.
In July 2023, AXS announced another significant fundraising, this time worth R$ 144 million, again using receivables certificates. These continuous investments are crucial for the expansion of solar energy infrastructure in Brazil. They demonstrate the investors’ confidence in AXS’s ability to execute large-scale projects.
AXS Energia: A Sustainable Future with Solar Plants
AXS is positioned as a leader in the shared distributed generation sector. Through this approach, multiple consumers can share the generated energy, making it accessible to a larger number of people and businesses. The company’s vision is clear: to provide clean and sustainable energy, while generating economic and environmental benefits.
Therefore, with the new investments and the planned expansion, AXS Energia is poised to play a crucial role in transforming the Brazilian energy sector. The transition to renewable energy sources is not only an environmental necessity but also an economic opportunity for Brazil, creating jobs and driving technological innovation.
