Vivo, the largest telecommunications company in the country, is advancing initiatives that prioritize renewable energy sources and inaugurates in Caruaru, in the state of Pernambuco, its first biogas plant in the Northeast region. This is the second unit of this model dedicated to Vivo’s consumption in the country. The new biogas plant of the operator was built and is operated by Grupo Gera. The plant is located at the landfill in Caruaru, Pernambuco, and has the capacity to generate 18,834 MWh/year, intended to serve over 1,100 consumer units of the company located in the state, such as stores, sites, and antennas.
In the distributed generation model, the energy produced by the plants, which are located closer to the consumption points of the companies, is injected into the local distributor’s grid. Vivo’s Property Director, Caio Guimarães, reveals that renewable energy production in the distributed generation model brings economic, social, and environmental benefits, as it helps minimize losses in the system, alleviates the grid load, avoids environmental impact, and also encourages local development.
