With The Capacity To Supply Thousands Of Households And Promote A More Sustainable Energy Matrix, BYD And Raízen Prepare To Establish Nine Solar Photovoltaic Plants Across Brazil
BYD, a global giant in electrified vehicles and clean energy, is about to inaugurate nine solar photovoltaic plants in partnership with Raízen. The plants, located in the states of Ceará, Rio de Janeiro, Rio Grande do Norte, and Pará, will start generating energy as early as May, contributing significantly to the matrix of sustainable energy in the country, according to the site Revista Oe.
With a total capacity of 26.5 Megawatts (MW), the project will have a significant impact, being capable of supplying 5,500 households per month, benefiting over 27,000 people. The solar energy generation from the plants will be integrated into the electrical grid, shared with Raízen’s own businesses and partners, resulting in savings on energy bills.
