Buritirama Mineração, a Company of the Buritipar Group, Will Implement a Renewable Energy Generation System to Supply Its Operations in Marabá, Pará

Buritirama Mineração, the owner of the largest manganese mine in Latin America, has become the first mining company in the country to implement a renewable energy generation system to supply electricity to its operations in Marabá, in the state of Pará. Through a partnership with battery manufacturer MicroPower, the company aims to have a complete solar energy generation system and is committed to the sustainable development of the mining industry in Brazil, which is expected to be operational within six months.

João Araújo, president of Buritirama Mineração, says, “We are a company that respects the environment and society as a whole. Accelerating our transition to this unprecedented action is important for Brazil, for our customers, and for future generations. This is the first step in our growing relationship with MicroPower in developing sustainable projects.”

Marco Krapels, founder and CEO of MicroPower-Comerc, said, “We are very pleased with this partnership. Companies around the world are starting to classify suppliers based on sustainability, concerned about the origin and how materials are produced. The commitment of Buritirama’s leadership to transition its mining business to 100% renewable is impressive!”

The mine operated by Buritirama in Marabá will receive clean energy, and Tesla will provide long-term batteries that can meet energy needs even without sunlight. Marco concludes by saying, “Brazil has great abundance of natural resources, including solar and wind, being a strong advantage in the global market. We are very pleased to assist the company in this goal.”
