Expert Discusses Solutions to Strengthen the Brazilian Electric System After Blackouts

Recently, a significant blackout in São Paulo affected over 2 million households, exposing the fragility of Brazil’s electrical infrastructure. This incident highlights the urgent need to reformulate the country’s strategy regarding its power grid. Juliano Gonçalves, an expert with extensive experience in the energy sector, proposes solutions to improve the reliability and efficiency of the grid.

Obstacles and Opportunities in Modernizing the Power Grid

Juliano Gonçalves, head of the Cable Division at Megger Brazil, with 25 years of experience focused on the reliability of power grids, suggests that implementing underground networks could solve many current problems. However, he acknowledges that, in reality, this is an unfeasible option due to high financial costs. Expenses related to excavation and the installation of new underground systems, along with the removal of existing infrastructure, make the process extremely expensive and time-consuming.

Despite these challenges, Gonçalves emphasizes the benefits of burying cables. This measure not only improves the reliability of the power grid but also contributes to urban aesthetics, creating a more organized and safer environment in cities.

Seven world powers including the US, China, and Russia are spending €22 billion on a reactor in the south of France that aims to confine plasma at 150 million degrees Celsius, ten times the temperature of the Sun’s core, using a magnetic field capable of lifting an entire aircraft carrier.

Elon Musk’s internet comes to mobile: Starlink technology connects smartphones without an antenna via satellite, works even without carrier signal, already costs just US$10 extra in the US, and could arrive in Brazil as an included benefit.

A Chinese factory in Guangdong is assembling a humanoid robot every 30 minutes while Tesla, Figure, and Boston Dynamics still struggle to deliver 10 thousand per year.

While Brazil has been discussing bullet trains for 16 years, China delivers 5 new high-speed lines in 2026, surpasses 50,000 km of HSR, and moves 1 billion passengers in a single year.

With a wingspan of 152 meters, 76 tires, and a capacity to carry 1,270 tons, the Boeing Pelican was the giant “flying ship” that promised to cross oceans close to the water on an invisible air cushion beneath its wings.

While countries spend billions to draw water from the sea, a Nobel-winning scientist creates a container-sized machine that extracts up to 1,000 liters per day from dry air and uses ultrasound to release water in minutes, even in the middle of the desert.

Belgium will sink 23 giant concrete caissons, each weighing 22,000 tons, in the North Sea to build the world’s first artificial energy island 45 km off the coast, forming offshore electrical walls.

Few know, but India has a 36 km wall that surrounds a fort in the mountains and is considered the second largest in the world, behind the Great Wall of China.

Hyundai Creta 2029 appears in new spy shots with a completely revamped design, a more modern digital interior, a larger multimedia center, a more comfortable passenger seat, and electrification finally on the radar.

Former CIA analyst warns that China has already surpassed the US in missiles, electronic warfare, cyber, and military production, transforming the Pacific into a zone without safe spaces while Washington clings to its submarine advantage.

Home-built airplane by a Minas Gerais engineer uses car parts, such as a power window motor for the flaps and a tachometer on the dashboard. The project took six years, and the aircraft has autonomy to fly up to seven hours non-stop.
