“In the last two years, we have mainly focused on building our portfolio. Now we will start talking to customers with products in hand to offer.”

This initiative is part of Shell’s strategy to enter the renewable energy sector, as industries increasingly seek to sign long-term clean energy contracts. While the group’s strategy in Brazil focuses on developing its own projects, the multinational does not rule out acquisitions in the sector, the report says.
One of these latent projects that are about to begin construction is the construction of the Marlim Azul Thermal Power Plant in the city of Macaé – RJ, also known as the “city of oil.”
When asked about the size of the company’s Brazilian renewable energy portfolio, Rocha said it is a “Shell-sized” portfolio.
In April, Shell submitted to Aneel, the regulatory agency for the electric sector in Brazil, a plan for the development of 130 MW of photovoltaic (PV) projects.
