Acelen, Perfin Infra, and Illian Announce Investment Agreement in Solar Power Generation Project in Bahia

A Acelen, through Refinaria de Mataripe S.A., Perfin Discovery Mercury Infrastructure Investment Fund, an investment fund managed by Perfin Infra Administração de Recursos Ltda. (“Perfin Infra”), and Illian Energias Renováveis S.A. (“Illian”), a company of the Electra Group, announce the signing of an investment agreement for a solar power generation project in the state of Bahia, as well as job openings. It is worth noting that Ceará is undergoing a similar process at this time.

A Acelen has also signed a long-term contract to purchase incentivized energy through self-production, including carbon credits generated by the future plant.

The project is part of the Federal Government’s Growth Acceleration Program (PAC) and consists of a plant with an installed capacity of 161 MWp. The plant will be built in the municipality of João Dourado, located in the Semi-arid region of Bahia.

In addition to generating renewable and clean energy, the implementation of the project will also contribute to the socio-economic development of the region by creating around 500 direct and indirect jobs during construction, and about 30 direct and indirect jobs after the start of commercial operation in the first quarter of 2025.

“The project represents another step towards energy transition, reaffirming one of its main objectives by investing in new renewable energy projects in the Northeast. Combined with other energy efficiency initiatives being implemented at the refinery, it will contribute to reducing the carbon and fossil component of Acelen’s results and energy matrix,” says Luiz de Mendonça, CEO of Acelen.

“For Perfin Infra, this is an important milestone, as it strengthens our contribution to the state of Bahia and reaffirms our commitment to energy transition,” says Daniel Shinohara, investment partner at Perfin Infra.

“For Illian, the agreement signifies the achievement of maturity for this new entrepreneurial company, 100% Brazilian, focused on the development and investment in centralized renewable generation projects, contributing to the sustainable economic growth of the country,” says CEO Sérgio Brandão.

The closing of the transaction is subject to the usual precedents for solar energy projects of this nature.

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.

Brazil will harvest a record crop of up to 357 million tons of grains, but it does not have the capacity to store a large part of it. The storage deficit has reached the highest level in history and is equivalent to almost the entire production of Argentina.

Four times faster than the Concorde, capable of taking passengers from New York to London in less than an hour at Mach 5.5, and with an engine that switches from turbojet to ramjet mid-flight at Mach 3.5, the Hermeus Quarterhorse went from paper to its first flight in just 19 months.

Under nearly 2 kilometers of ice in Antarctica, scientists have discovered an ancient landscape sculpted by rivers up to 60 million years ago, the size of Wales, preserved as a time capsule that could help predict the advance of ice towards the ocean.

She started by collecting oyster shells from restaurants and today she has already accumulated more than 10 tons to restore reefs, recover coastal habitats, and demonstrate how a common waste can become a tool for ocean conservation.

SpaceX will dock a $843 million vehicle to the International Space Station to push a nearly 420-ton laboratory against the atmosphere and make the debris fall in a controlled manner into the ocean.

For the economist José Kobori, the USA gained a trump card to “blackmail” Brazil and undermine China’s influence by classifying the PCC and Comando Vermelho as terrorists, increasing the power to pressure companies, banks, and even Pix.

BYD Atto 2 DM-i flex prepares to debut in Brazil with a plug-in hybrid engine, national assembly in Camaçari, competitive pricing, and targets Creta and T-Cross in a battle that promises to heat up the compact SUV market.

Processors can become 1,000 times faster with a new device that uses light pulses, operates in 40 picoseconds, and reduces the heat that stalls data centers.

Noise in the sky frightened residents: NASA confirms that a meteor exploded over New England with a force equivalent to 230 tons of TNT

The paycheck that seemed impossible: São José employee receives R$ 7.94 after legal strike, while deductions by the City Hall affect over a thousand employees and become a target of inquiry in the City Council.
