Solar And Wind Energy In Bahia Brings More Security In Distributed Generation, To The Environment And Reduces Costs For The Consumer

Bahia has shown great commitment to adopting solar and wind energy as the main source of energy distribution in the state. Maintaining leadership for the second consecutive year, Bahia is currently occupying the first place in the national ranking for renewable energy production. The Economic Development (SDE) and Infrastructure (Seinfra) Secretariats of the State Government have been working hard to ensure that even more progress occurs, allowing Bahia to remain at the top of the ranking.

Wind Energy Is The Leader In Bahia

The wind energy source generated around 12,590.21 GWh between January and September 2020, according to the National Electric System Operator (ONS). With the activation of 17 new parks in 2020, it ensured Bahia’s continued first position in the ranking for electricity production from wind sources in Brazil.

The parks that came into operation were Caititu 2 and 3, Carcará, Casa Nova A, Corrupião 3, Serra do Fogo, Serra do Vento and Ventos de São Januário 01, 03, 04, 05, 06, 13, 14, 20, 21 and 22, which are located in Pindaí, Casa Nova, Sento Sé, and Campo Formoso. In total, there are 182 parks in commercial operation across 20 municipalities in Bahia.

“Bahia will receive new electric power transmission lines, one of them, from Neoenergia Group, will have a length of 1,000 km, with a maximum deadline of 60 months for completion and an expectation of generating over 4,000 direct jobs during construction. The transmission lines will pass through 27 municipalities, such as Morro do Chapéu, Poções, and Medeiros Neto. We will also have investments of R$ 13 billion in the construction of new wind parks, which are expected to generate 56,000 direct and indirect jobs. Meanwhile, new solar power plants estimate to invest over R$ 8 billion and create 27,500 direct job positions. Both by 2025.”

Seen from space, an image taken by an astronaut shows an unlikely oasis in the Saudi Arabian desert, protected by a terrain that slows the advance of sand, surrounded by green circles, remnants of an extinct lake and nearly 10,000 years of preserved history.

While the U.S. still faces limitations in deep space, China is developing unprecedented technology with strategic satellites that maintain communication with the far side of the Moon and aims for dominance by 2030.

In Botswana, a salt flat of up to 16,000 km² that was once an African megalake spends months as an absolute white desert, but during the rainy season it transforms into a shallow sea that reappears from nowhere and can be seen from space in the middle of southern Africa.

The Blood Falls of Antarctica hide a living ecosystem trapped under the ice for over 2 million years, where microbes survive without light, without oxygen, and without ever having seen the Sun.

Bavarian archaeologists unearthed a medieval skeleton that had an articulated iron hand in place of its left arm, and the discovery reveals that doctors were already creating sophisticated prosthetics over 500 years ago.

The CEO of Honor in Spain says that smartphones will change with AI, foldables, and even robot phones; the component crisis is making cheap models more expensive in 2026 and shifting the focus to premium.

The probe that passed by Saturn nearly 20 years ago captured something that no one expected — and only now have scientists deciphered complex organic molecules coming from an ocean hidden beneath the ice.

Before mining the ocean floor, scientists found 24 unknown creatures at 4,000 meters — including an entire superfamily that science had never seen before.

In the asteroid belt, an “impossible comet” is releasing water vapor where it shouldn’t exist, and the James Webb telescope has revealed that primordial ice has survived for billions of years in a region that could rewrite the origin of water on Earth.

Mercedes has created an electric motor with over 1,000 horsepower that weighs only 12.7 kilograms — less than a suitcase and with the highest power density ever recorded.

At over 8 meters tall and resembling a trunk, this creature dominated the Earth 400 million years before the dinosaurs — and science still doesn’t know what it was.

Every time a river flows into the sea, an amount of energy equivalent to a 120-meter waterfall is silently wasted, but Japan has just inaugurated the world’s first power plant that captures this waste and transforms it into electricity 24 hours a day without sun, wind, or fuel.

Silicon Valley bets on a 100-hour battery that uses carbon and oxygen to store renewable energy for days and could turn a little-known chemical system into an alternative to critical metal batteries to tackle prolonged blackouts.

Canadian engineers want to compress air in underground caverns and build plants of up to 500 MW that function as giant lungs to store renewable energy for hours and stabilize entire electrical grids.

British engineers cool air until it turns into liquid, store energy for weeks, and create an “invisible battery” capable of sustaining the power grid when the wind stops and the sun disappears.
