With Two Pilot Projects in Brasília, Japanese Company Sees Brazil as a Promising Market for Renewable Energy Investments

Energy generation through cleaner sources than fossil fuels has drawn significant attention from foreign investors to Brazil, and this time, the interested party is Japan.
The Japanese company Shizen Energy, which is investing outside of Asia for the first time, is making significant investments in Brazil. The focus now is on photovoltaic energy.

The company already has two pilot projects in the federal capital, aiming to assess the behavior of the local market and, based on the results, invest around US$ 250 million of its capital in large-scale solar generation projects.

The Reason for Japanese Interest

Brazil is among the top 10 electricity consumers and has a positive profile for increasing demand in the coming years, with renewable energy representing 80.3% of the energy matrix, and our primary source being hydropower.

It is worth noting that Brazil has been recognized by the International Energy Agency (IEA) as the country with the cleanest energy matrix in the world.

The Reason for Japanese Interest

Mother and daughter build a 70 m² house with more than 8,000 discarded glass bottles and impress with their creativity; known as the Casa de Sal, the property is located on Itamaracá Island, in Pernambuco.

Workers were opening a new road connection near the Marginal Tietê when they found, in the underground of the construction site, remnants of locomotives, wagons, and boilers from the 19th century linked to the forgotten history of Lapa.

Instead of burning or burying old tires, an American city is transforming about 2,000 of them into the street itself, paving its first sections with a quieter and more durable rubber asphalt.

He transformed an abandoned plastic water tank into an underground house in the “hobbit hole” style, using only repurposed pallet wood, without heavy machinery or expensive labor.

China transforms desert-devastated area into the world’s largest artificial forest, planting trees for 60 years, blocking sand that reached Beijing, and creating a “green lung” of 92,000 hectares in a region once considered lost.

The river that “dies” in the desert never reaches the sea and yet gives life to one of Africa’s largest natural refuges in a truly impressive way.

Greek island offers free housing for volunteers, but there’s a condition: you need to take care of rescued cats.

Ana Castela presents new horses, attempts a 360-degree spin for the first time, and impresses fans with track-worthy technique.

Water can carry pesticides invisible to common treatment, but nanosensors developed by Brazilian researchers promise to speed up the alert before the risk reaches the tap.

Gases created to save the ozone layer have become a new global warning: substitutes for CFCs have already released more than 335,000 tons of a “forever chemical” onto the Earth as invisible rain, contaminating everything from tap water to Arctic ice.

When an asteroid appears without warning, ESA switches from emails to voice calls and speeds up alerts that can determine the response on Earth.

With declining production and exports at their limit, Argentina cuts vehicle tax to try to regain competitiveness and protect its pickups from the Chinese offensive.
