BRF Closes Partnership with AES Brazil for the Construction of a Wind Farm in Rio Grande do Norte.

It was announced this Tuesday (15) by BRF, a leading food company, a partnership with the AES Brazil subsidiary aimed at building a wind farm in Rio Grande do Norte, in the municipality of Cajuína, aligning with the Joint Venture announced last year. The project will have a capacity of 165.3 MW and 80MW average per year to be sold through a power purchase agreement lasting 15 years. Construction work on the wind farm in Rio Grande do Norte is already underway, and the expectation is that the works will be completed in 2024.

AES Brazil and BRF Project Includes Investments of R$ 905 Million

The estimate is that R$ 905 million will be invested. In total, BRF will directly invest about R$ 92 million, which will be implemented over the next two years during the construction of the wind farm in Rio Grande do Norte. Through the project, BRF will be closer to reaching its sustainability goals, arriving at the beginning of the next decade with half of its energy matrix coming from renewable energy sources.

According to BRF’s Global Supply Director, Daniel Bucheb, the Joint Venture in partnership with AES Brazil will meet part of the company’s electricity demand in Brazil, leading to its earnings and capacity amounting to R$ 735 million over the next 15 years of the contract through cost reduction.
