Partnership Between Neoenergia And CCR Seeks To Reduce Emissions With Autoproduction Of Wind Energy To Supply 60% Of CCR’s Energy Demand
Neoenergia (NEOE3) announced this Monday (11) an important agreement with subsidiaries of CCR (CCRO3) for the autoproduction of wind energy, an initiative aimed at decarbonizing CCR’s operations and ensuring that 100% of its assets are supplied by renewable sources by 2025.
This project marks the first contract of its kind signed by the mobility company, directly addressing 60% of the current energy demand of its concessions in São Paulo.
The agreement involves the sale, by Neoenergia, of minority stakes in wind farms of the Oitis complex, in Piauí, to CCR’s subsidiaries, for a value of R$ 21.7 million.

A new Brazilian shopping center worth R$ 400 million will be built in an area equivalent to more than 4 football fields, featuring 90 stores, 5 cinemas, a supermarket, a college, and parking for 1,700 cars, potentially generating 3,000 jobs.

Larger than entire cities in Brazil: BYD is building a 4.6 km² complex in Bahia with a capacity for 600,000 vehicles per year, but the discovery of 163 workers in conditions analogous to slavery has shaken the entire project.

With an investment of R$ 612 million, a capacity to process 1.2 million liters of milk per day, Piracanjuba inaugurates a mega cheese factory that increases national production, reduces dependence on imports, and repositions Brazil on the global dairy map.

Brazilian city gains industrial hub for 85 companies that is equivalent to 55 football fields.
The energy produced will be destined for the consumption of CCR’s operations for a period of 16 years, with the supply expected to begin in January 2025.
New Modal In Neoenergia
The generated energy will total 44 average megawatts (MWm), a volume that significantly contributes to CCR’s sustainability goals and its commitment to clean energy.
The autoproduction modality, growing in Brazil, allows companies to become co-producers by investing in power generation plants, ensuring access to incentives that reduce costs, such as exemptions from sectorial charges.
Free Energy Market
Thus, CCR will be able to optimize its energy expenses while strengthening its sustainability strategy. This project, in addition to supporting its transport operations, contributes to CCR’s emissions neutralization goal, which in 2023 had already migrated to the free energy market, acquired renewable energy certificates (IRECs), and invested in solar generation.
For Neoenergia, the partnership represents a long-term revenue source and a boost to its strategy of expanding renewable generation sources.
“This agreement ensures financial stability with adequate profitability and reaffirms our commitment to sustainable investments,” said Hugo Nunes, Executive Director of Liberalized Business at Neoenergia.
The contract is still subject to approval by regulatory entities, including the Administrative Council for Economic Defense (Cade).
