The agreement calls for Moura to participate as a partner in the wind farm, qualifying as a self-producer and will result in 504 MW to meet the total energy consumption of the Pernambucan company.
According to Moura, the company will avoid the emission of 60,000 tons of CO2 into the atmosphere with the use of clean energy, equivalent to the carbon captured by planting 350,000 trees.
