Enel Solar Power Plant in São Gonçalo Will Have More Than 2.2 Million Solar Panels

Enel Green Power has started commercial operations of a 133 MW expansion of the São Gonçalo solar power plant, which will total 864 MW when fully operational by the end of this year.

The construction of the first section of Enel’s solar power plant, comprising 475 MW, began in October 2018, connecting to the grid in January 2020.

In August 2019, Enel announced the start of construction for the 133 MW extension of the São Gonçalo solar park. An additional 256 MW expansion, which began construction in 2020, is expected to be operational in 2021.

The total project is the largest solar power plant in South America and is located in São Gonçalo do Gurgueia, in northeastern Piauí, Brazil. The construction of the 133 MW section involved an investment of approximately € 100M.

Enel Green Power’s CEO, Salvatore Bernabei, said, “The operational launch of the first expansion of the innovative solar park in São Gonçalo represents a significant step forward for Enel in Brazil, strengthening our leadership position in the country’s solar power generation market.”

“Despite the challenges of the current scenario, we recently started construction of 1.3 GW of renewable capacity in Brazil, which includes a new section of 256 MW of the São Gonçalo solar park.”

“Therefore, we reaffirm our commitment to further contribute to the growth of the country’s electricity sector and to lead the green recovery in Brazil, just as we are doing worldwide.”

She started by collecting oyster shells from restaurants and today she has already accumulated more than 10 tons to restore reefs, recover coastal habitats, and demonstrate how a common waste can become a tool for ocean conservation.

SpaceX will dock a $843 million vehicle to the International Space Station to push a nearly 420-ton laboratory against the atmosphere and make the debris fall in a controlled manner into the ocean.

Fishermen find a rare 127 kg substance inside a whale in Yemen, sell the “whale vomit” for $1.5 million, and become millionaires with the find in the Gulf of Aden.

For the economist José Kobori, the USA gained a trump card to “blackmail” Brazil and undermine China’s influence by classifying the PCC and Comando Vermelho as terrorists, increasing the power to pressure companies, banks, and even Pix.

BYD Atto 2 DM-i flex prepares to debut in Brazil with a plug-in hybrid engine, national assembly in Camaçari, competitive pricing, and targets Creta and T-Cross in a battle that promises to heat up the compact SUV market.

Processors can become 1,000 times faster with a new device that uses light pulses, operates in 40 picoseconds, and reduces the heat that stalls data centers.
