Words from the President of Solatio regarding the solar energy park in Brazil

“It's a mega park, with an installed capacity of around 1200 megawatts. That's energy to supply approximately 1,2 million homes. Thus, construction should begin in the second half of this year and energy will begin to be delivered in the second half of 2022.
