Bahia Led Nationally, With Over 30%, The Generation of Energy From Wind and Solar Photovoltaic Sources

The Bahia led nationally, with over 30%, the generation of renewable energy from wind (31.8%) and solar photovoltaic (33.7%) sources in 2019. The wind source in the State grew by more than 50% and the photovoltaic by more than 70% compared to 2018.

“The numbers are very clear. Bahia is a leader in the renewable sector in the country. In addition to contributing to the diversification of the energy matrix, the sector has boosted economic and social development in the interior, especially in the semi-arid region, where most of the parks are established. Land leasing, economic movement, jobs, social projects, and increased city revenue are some of the benefits,” says João Leão, Deputy Governor and Secretary of Economic Development of the State.

Renewable Energy: Wind Energy

From January to November 2019, 15,152 Gigawatt-hours (GWh) were generated, energy capable of supplying 126 million residences/year, benefiting 378 million inhabitants/year – equivalent to 27 times the Bahian population, which currently corresponds to 14.8 million inhabitants, according to the IBGE estimate from last year. Bahia has 165 wind farms in operation, with an installed capacity of 4GW and more than 1,340 wind turbines.

Just like the winds, the excellent levels of solar radiation have made Bahia stand out with the utilization of natural resources. There are 29 photovoltaic parks in operation, with 777 Megawatts (MW) of installed capacity and more than 3 million photovoltaic modules, where R$ 3.8 billion has already been invested in the municipalities of Barreiras, Bom Jesus da Lapa, Casa Nova, Guanambi, Itaguaçu da Bahia, Juazeiro, and Tabocas do Brejo Velho. More than 10,000 direct jobs were generated during the construction phase of the parks that are already in operation.

Mother and daughter build a 70 m² house with more than 8,000 discarded glass bottles and impress with their creativity; known as the Casa de Sal, the property is located on Itamaracá Island, in Pernambuco.

Workers were opening a new road connection near the Marginal Tietê when they found, in the underground of the construction site, remnants of locomotives, wagons, and boilers from the 19th century linked to the forgotten history of Lapa.

Instead of burning or burying old tires, an American city is transforming about 2,000 of them into the street itself, paving its first sections with a quieter and more durable rubber asphalt.

China transforms desert-devastated area into the world’s largest artificial forest, planting trees for 60 years, blocking sand that reached Beijing, and creating a “green lung” of 92,000 hectares in a region once considered lost.

He transformed an abandoned plastic water tank into an underground house in the “hobbit hole” style, using only repurposed pallet wood, without heavy machinery or expensive labor.

The river that “dies” in the desert never reaches the sea and yet gives life to one of Africa’s largest natural refuges in a truly impressive way.

Greek island offers free housing for volunteers, but there’s a condition: you need to take care of rescued cats.

Brazil refuses to support the G7 text on critical minerals and rare earths, enters the heavy game of strategic inputs, and tries to escape the old trap of exporting raw wealth while rich countries keep the most profitable part.

Technicians and engineers are called for selection processes today.

Florida takes TikTok to court and accuses the Chinese giant ByteDance of ignoring the law that bars minors under 14, while parents and authorities demand more protection for children on social networks.

Far beyond simple shocks: scientists highlight how electric fish from the Amazon use complex bioelectric mechanisms to generate up to 860 volts, a natural evolutionary innovation that ensures an absolute advantage in dark and challenging ecosystems.

Drivers with licenses nearing expiration received an unexpected reprieve on the calendar, but the Contran extension only applies to those within specific dates.

Illiterate or semi-literate grandmothers were trained to repair solar systems, open rural workshops, and light up homes that still depended on kerosene.

The world has bet on green hydrogen as the fuel of the future, but now faces the side effect: producing 1 kilogram requires about 9 liters of ultrapure water, and the largest projects on the planet are precisely in the driest regions of the Earth, where water is already scarce for people.

Africa has about 500,000 cell towers and most still burn diesel to operate, while companies rush to cover antennas with solar energy and avoid signal blackouts.

Farmers swapped diesel for solar panels in Pakistan, powered irrigation pumps almost cost-free, expanded rice fields, and now groundwater has become a red alert in the countryside.

Migrant workers left the world’s largest renewable energy park in India after extreme heat, 12-hour shifts, delayed wages, and poor accommodations at a site that still promises to supply 18 million homes.
