Ceará Will Get the First Wave Energy Plant, Which Will Be at the Port of Pecém. The Construction Will Generate Jobs and Technological and Environmental Development
The Pecém Complex, in Brazil, and the Swedish-Israeli company Eco Wave Power signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) for the establishment of a wave energy plant at the Port of Pecém facilities. Additionally, another good news is that the multinational leader in the production of blades for wind turbines, Aeris Energy, plans to build its third factory in the state!

The parties intend to install a matrix of wave energy converters connected to the grid at the breakwater of the Port of Pecém with a capacity of up to 9 MW.
During the preparatory phase, the goal will be to complete a pre-feasibility analysis of the project in the area of the Pecém Complex, as well as finalize the preliminary development of the project proposal. The agreement will serve as preparation for the concession contract.

“The Port of Pecém hosted, from 2010 to 2015, the first large-scale wave energy converter prototype in Latin America. It was a research and development project that gave us the know-how to move on to this next stage, which consists of using wave energy on a commercial scale in Pecém. This is our contribution to the fight against climate change”, said Danilo Serpa, CEO of the Pecém Complex.
According to a study by the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, from 2019, Brazil has an estimated wave energy potential of 91.8 GW. The study points out that converting only one-fifth of this potential would be enough to meet about 35% of the country’s electricity demand. Another study, from the Federal University of ABC in 2020, calculates that only the northeastern region, where the Port of Pecém is located, would have an estimated ocean energy potential of 22 GW.

80-Meter Giant Wind Blade Manufactured by Aeris Energy for Nordex — One of the Largest Wind Turbine Manufacturers in the World — Embarks at the Port of Pecém Destined for Europe
The size of the wind blade (or blades) manufactured by Aeris Energy for the German Nordex — one of the largest wind turbine manufacturers in the world – is impressive! The shipment of the first unit of this giant — the largest wind blade ever produced in the Southern Hemisphere – involved a specialized operation. The more than 80 meters in length required the involvement of various professionals, from manufacturing to transportation to the Port of Pecém, in Ceará.
The record shipment of the giant wind blade (or blade) measuring 80.1 meters for the German Nordex is celebrated by the Pecém Port Complex as the largest in the history of the Port!
“This time, we surpassed ourselves, breaking our own record this Tuesday (11), by shipping a wind blade of an incredible 80.1 meters! A giant from Nordex produced in the Industrial Area of the Pecém Complex and shipped at berth 7 of the Pecém port terminal, after a successful test operation carried out together by our operational service providers Tecer and Unilink. Just to give you an idea…this giant is more than twice the size of the other blades (34.57m each) shipped on the ship Trinitas, which is already on its way to Europe, where the 80.1-meter blade will undergo technical checks,” celebrates the Pecém Complex on its LinkedIn social media.
