Ambev, Beverage Manufacturing Company, Is Investing in Renewable Energy Sources. 51 Thousand Solar Panels Will Be Installed Across Brazil

Ambev, a leader in beverage manufacturing, announced that it will build 48 solar power plants to supply 94 distribution centers in Brazil. The plan is part of the company’s commitment to consuming 100% renewable energy by 2025 and reducing carbon emissions by 25%. A total of 51 thousand solar panels will be installed, with a generation capacity of 19 megawatts (MW), enough to power 15 thousand homes.

The solar plants will be built in 21 states and the Federal District, where Ambev operates. The project will be carried out in cooperation with Solution, GD Solar, and Gera Energia, which will reduce 46 thousand tons of CO² annually. They will be responsible for the entire project and will deliver energy to Ambev under a 10-year contract. After this period, the beverage manufacturers will have the option to purchase the units.

Last month, the first solar plant of the project was inaugurated in Anápolis, Goiás. The plant is built in the shape of the Budweiser brand and will provide services on-site for the four distribution centers of the company. By December, 20 more units will be inaugurated, and the remaining ones are expected to be in operation by the end of the first quarter of next year.

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

China is building an artificial island in the middle of the sea, covering 20 km², to construct the largest offshore airport in the world, the Dalian Jinzhouwan. This $4.3 billion project is anchored on more than 3,000 pillars embedded in the rock beneath the ocean and is scheduled to open in 2035.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

A robot named Walter does the work of five bricklayers per hour and can save the construction industry, where the average age of professionals is 46 years and almost no one wants to learn the trade anymore, in the United Kingdom.

Spain installs two giant pipelines 2.2 km off the coast to draw water from the Mediterranean and supply a megafacility capable of producing 200 million liters of drinking water per day.

A British company has installed in the middle of the ocean the world’s first floating platform that generates electricity 24 hours a day from the temperature difference between the surface and the depths of the Atlantic, without relying on wind or sun.

This technology could retire washboards and regular washing machines: Xiaomi launches a three-drum washer with an automatic detergent dosing system, washes clothes at 95°C simultaneously, prevents cross-contamination, and costs less than R$ 3,000 in China.

In a country where about 75% of the territory is mountainous and little land is left for planting, Japan has turned scarcity into luxury, selling pairs of Yubari melons for amounts that reached nearly US$ 45,000 and cultivating the true wasabi that 90% of the world has never tasted.

A bi-oceanic railway is expected to connect the Brazilian coast to the Chinese port of Chancay in Peru and cross the South American continent from coast to coast. It is part of the same package of R$ 140 billion in railways that the government is opening to investors later this year.

Japan is about to launch a satellite that captures solar energy in space and sends electricity to Earth in the form of microwaves. The technology promises to generate energy 24 hours a day without relying on clouds, night, or solar panels on the ground.
