The Government of Ceará Together with BP’s Subsidiary Plans to Build Solar Plants That Will Generate Over a Thousand Jobs

The state government of Ceará and BP’s subsidiary, Lightsource BP, met to coordinate the details of implementing sustainable projects in the state. The project includes two photovoltaic solar plants, and commercial operation is expected to commence in 2022. These projects will create a total of 1,400 direct job opportunities during the construction phase.

With a New Record, the Solar Energy Sector Sees Major Investments in Brazil

According to a survey by Absolar – Brazilian Association of Photovoltaic Solar Energy, Brazil has reached a new record in the photovoltaic solar energy sector. Investments in the area exceed 13 billion reais, including large plants and energy generation systems installed on roofs, exterior walls, and small plots of land. Since 2012, compared to accumulated investments in Brazil, the result has increased by 52%.

In terms of clean and renewable energy generation capacity, Brazil currently has 7.5 gigawatts (GW) of photovoltaic solar energy to generate electricity, comprising large factories and small to medium systems installed on roofs, exterior walls, and land (distributed generation), responsible for more than half of the installed capacity of the Itaipu Hydroelectric Plant, the largest in Brazil and the second largest in the world.

A giant printer called the “Ferrari” of concrete has landed in Latin America and can already build a 120-square-meter house in just 48 hours, making the traditional construction site look like something from the last century.

A British company has installed in the middle of the ocean the world’s first floating platform that generates electricity 24 hours a day from the temperature difference between the surface and the depths of the Atlantic, without relying on wind or sun.

Great Atlantic Sargassum Belt has ceased to be a climatic phenomenon and has become a biological system that feeds on itself, with 8,000 kilometers in length, 37 million tons of algae, and scientists confirm that it is now permanent.

China is building an artificial island in the middle of the sea, covering 20 km², to construct the largest offshore airport in the world, the Dalian Jinzhouwan. This $4.3 billion project is anchored on more than 3,000 pillars embedded in the rock beneath the ocean and is scheduled to open in 2035.

A robot named Walter does the work of five bricklayers per hour and can save the construction industry, where the average age of professionals is 46 years and almost no one wants to learn the trade anymore, in the United Kingdom.

Engineers had to pour concrete mixed with tons of ice throughout entire nights in the Dubai desert to erect the Burj Khalifa; any carelessness could clog the pipes half a mile high.

The James Webb telescope spotted a planet 700 light-years from Earth with mornings full of sand clouds and nights with clear skies, the temperature difference between the two hemispheres reaches an impressive 170 degrees.

At about 9 meters deep in the sea of Sicily, divers recovered a 2,500-year-old marble horse attributed to the colossal Temple of Zeus in Agrigento, a piece that, if confirmed, would be the largest archaeological discovery in the region in a century.

The world’s smallest war drone fits in the palm of your hand, weighs 70 grams, is ready in less than a minute, and has already been delivered to over 45 countries. The Black Hornet nanodrone allows soldiers to spy on dangerous areas without leaving cover.

Study of surgical instruments found in Pompeii reveals that a Roman doctor died trying to escape Vesuvius carrying his entire professional kit, with tomography and X-ray identifying previously unknown tools.
