With 74% of companies facing difficulties in hiring, technicians and engineers in renewable energy are becoming scarce in Brazil and are essential to support the expansion of solar, wind, and green hydrogen projects.

After China, it’s now the turn of the USA to ‘secure’ a share of Brazil’s natural resources: the country buys critical rare earths for R$ 3 billion and enters the center of the global technology dispute.

Rare earths are in everything, from cell phones to bullet trains, and what almost no one realizes is why they have become the target of such a delicate global war.
The meeting took place in Mayor Helio Campos’s office and served as a gateway for future partnerships. Thus, the representatives of CSN and the city hall of Ouro Branco presented their projections for future growth in the mining sector and together discussed the possibility of partnerships in the region.
