The protocol carried out by the government of SP in conjunction with Absolar aims not only to implement renewable energy in the State, but also to train more Brazilian professionals in the renewable energy sector.
Soon there will be some lectures, free courses, seminars and previous studies to verify if the areas planned to receive the project are in compliance. The initial partnership has a duration of two years.

Photovoltaic solar energy sector has already brought more than 24 thousand jobs and should generate even more in SP
According to studies carried out by Absolar in 2012 alone, in the early days of renewable energy, when almost no company invested in this area, clean energy generated more than 24 jobs in the state.
The idea of Absolar's partnership with the government of the State of SP is to raise even more investments and multiply by four times this number of job creation in Brazil.
The government of SP states that for this it will work to reduce rates and everything that may interfere with the solar energy project
The São Paulo management informed that, in order to democratize access to renewable energy, the entities will work to reduce the costs of solar generation.
“Here in SP we have great power to not only generate jobs and leverage our country's economy, but we can use the power of the sun to generate electricity using solar energy. We will use solar energy to attract new investments to the state, generate jobs and reinvigorate our economy” Concluded Marcos Penido – Secretary of Infrastructure and Environment (SIMA).
