Global Sustainability Seal Boosts Clean Production

The industrial complex of BYD Auto in Camaçari, Bahia, achieved the I-REC international certification on September 17, 2025.
The seal certifies the exclusive use of renewable energy.
This recognition positions the company as a reference in sustainability and reinforces its commitment to the energy transition.

Certification Ensures Traceability of Energy Used

The achievement of the I-REC seal confirms that 100% of the electricity consumed by the factory comes from wind sources.
This global system is audited in Brazil by the Totum Institute in São Paulo.
It guarantees the traceability of energy and certifies its renewable origin.
With this measure, BYD avoided the emission of approximately 470 tons of CO₂ between October 2024 and August 2025.
This result corresponds to the planting of approximately 3,300 trees.

Sustainable Strategy Strengthens Automotive Sector

According to the president of BYD Auto in Brazil, Tyler Li, the initiative demonstrates the company’s commitment to sustainability.
He stated that the company’s production process is already fully aligned with low-carbon practices.
Thus, the certification becomes a competitive advantage for BYD in the market for hybrid and electric vehicles.
The brand solidifies its position as a pioneer in clean production in the country.

Certification Process Involved Rigorous Energy Analysis

To obtain the certificate, BYD conducted a detailed mapping of the energy consumption of the Camaçari industrial complex.
Then, the company selected a supplier capable of guaranteeing the renewable origin of the electricity.
In this way, the company ensures that all energy consumed at the unit is traceable and auditable.
This step consolidates its leadership position in environmental practices in the Brazilian industrial sector.

BYD Advances Expansion in Brazil with Focus on Sustainability

Present in Brazil for over ten years, BYD already has factories in Campinas (SP) and Manaus (AM). Additionally, in 2024, it began the construction of the Camaçari complex, considered the largest project of the company outside Asia.

At the same time, the company has already distinguished itself in mobility projects, such as the monorail of Line 17-Gold in São Paulo. Also in 2024, BYD achieved the 10th position in the national ranking of passenger car sales.

As a result, seven out of ten electric vehicles sold in the country were from the brand.
Likewise, for every four hybrids sold, one belonged to the company.

Thus, the I-REC certification adds to the company’s innovation trajectory.
Therefore, it strengthens the brand’s positioning as a leader in the energy transition and sustainable mobility in Brazil.

BYD Advances Expansion in Brazil with Focus on Sustainability

The Soviet Union spent 22 years drilling into the Earth’s crust and reached a depth of 12,262 meters — they found water where it was thought impossible, hydrogen bubbling from the rock, granite that is 2.7 billion years old, and temperatures of 180 degrees that melted the drill bits.

Egypt wants to draw 10 million cubic meters of water from the Nile per day into the desert, irrigate a new agricultural frontier, and build a city where there is currently only sand.

BRICS is preparing a payment system inspired by the Brazilian PIX that will allow direct transactions between countries using national digital currencies without relying on the dollar or Western banks as intermediaries.

Ethiopia has banned gasoline and diesel cars, placed over a hundred silent electric buses on the streets of Addis Ababa, and now aims for half a million electric vehicles by 2030, all powered by Africa’s largest dam and a courage that few countries have shown.

A view from space, an image made by NASA shows the impressive Richat Structure, a geological formation located in the Sahara Desert, also known as the “Eye of the Sahara.”

A brand that has been manufacturing motorcycles since 1901 launches its first electric model, and the price shocked the world: $3,000, weighing only 124 kg and accelerating from 0 to 60 km/h in 3.7 seconds…

Giant turbines on the seabed of Scotland have been generating clean energy for nearly a decade without interruption, and now the big promise is that tidal power could solve the biggest problem of solar and wind energy: the unpredictability that no one has been able to overcome until today.

With 1 trillion yuan in investments, China is creating from scratch a “city of the future” almost the size of London to relieve Beijing and transform the project into part of the legacy of supreme leader Xi Jinping.

The sea may advance faster than imagined: a 1-meter rise in ocean levels could leave up to 132 million people below the waterline, while a flaw present in over 99% of coastal analyses suggests that the real risk is already being underestimated.

A love letter written 540 years ago reappears thanks to artificial intelligence and reveals a surprising story of passion, family conflicts, a dowry dispute, and difficult choices that challenged the rules of medieval England.

SpaceX admits that the idea of taking artificial intelligence servers into space could run into something simple and inevitable: the laws of physics, which make the project more complex than it seemed.

Mars may once have been covered by an immense ocean, but today it displays on its surface the mark of an “empty bathtub” which suggests a colossal disappearance of water and rekindles one of the greatest mysteries of the red planet.

Europe has never produced so much clean energy at the start of a year — 384.9 TWh of renewables in the first quarter of 2026 broke all records, and fossil generation fell to its lowest level.

For the first time in history, solar and wind energy supplied more electricity than all global demand growth — and fossil generation fell to its lowest level in 100 years.

Renewable energy surpasses coal for the first time and marks a historic turning point in the global electricity sector

Climate change should be combated by solar and wind energy — but extreme heat reduces the efficiency of panels, violent winds shut down the turbines, and extreme rainfall floods entire power plants.

130 kilometers off the coast and with 260-meter-tall turbines, the world’s largest offshore wind farm is being assembled on the bottom of the North Sea — when complete, its 277 turbines will generate energy for 6 million homes in the United Kingdom.
