In Minas Gerais (MG), solar energy is extensively explored, as the state has the highest number of solar panel projects in the country. This is due to the high solar irradiation index in the region and governmental incentives.

These investments in the solar sector in the state, besides creating sustainability for the ventures and generating job opportunities and income, will attract new types of investments.

About the Company

Focusing on large-scale projects in Europe and Latin America, Powertis is a developer of photovoltaic solar energy, aiming to reduce electricity costs and maximize value creation for all stakeholders.

Powertis operates in 3 countries and annually prevents over 7,000 tons of CO2 from being emitted into the atmosphere. By last year (2020), Powertis had approximately 5.3 GW installed across the 3 countries.

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.

The oldest tree in the world, alive since before the birth of Jesus Christ, is cut down in a scientific study and the case changes environmental preservation rules.

An entire island in the Pacific wants to surround itself with a colossal barrier against the ocean to try to escape increasingly violent waves and not be swallowed by the sea in the coming decades.

Peru built a tunnel at an altitude of 4,738 meters cutting through the Andes Mountains, and the road leading to it reaches 4,818 meters, making it the highest paved road in the entire world.

In the Saudi Arabian desert, the world’s largest green hydrogen plant is 80% complete and will use 4 gigawatts of solar and wind energy to produce 600 tons of clean fuel per day when it opens in 2027.

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.

Labor shortage: Switzerland is ‘desperate’ to find 40,000 workers, and Brazilians in this situation can apply.

At the most remote point on the planet, thousands of kilometers away from any inhabited land, there is a cemetery of spacecraft where space structures are sent at the end of their mission.

Driven by the BBB showcase, the Chinese Hatch surges in retail, surpasses the Corolla Cross, and begins to threaten Hyundai and BYD in one of the month’s most unexpected turns.

What once seemed like fiction is beginning to become doctrine: the soldier of the future is being equipped as a walking technological platform, with body sensors, augmented reality, and total integration into digital combat.

The Earth only had supermountains twice in 4.5 billion years, and during both times, life took a giant leap: first, visible organisms emerged, and then came the animals with skeletons during the Cambrian explosion.
