Neoenergia Advances in the Construction of the Luzia Solar Complex. The Plant is the Company’s First for Centralized Photovoltaic Generation for the Free Market

The construction works of the Luzia Solar Complex are in full swing and Neoenergia has just installed the first support stake for the over 233,000 solar panels planned for the park. With a total installed capacity of 149.3 MWp, the Luzia Solar Complex is the company’s first for centralized photovoltaic generation for the free market. In 2022, with Luzia and other assets under construction, more than 90% of the company’s matrix will be made up of renewable energies.

The asset will have operational synergy with wind and transmission projects and is aligned with Neoenergia’s goal to expand its clean energy generation portfolio while creating value and contributing to sustainable, low-carbon development. The construction of the parks will also bring economic benefits to landowners throughout the life of the project. Job creation is another advantage of the works, which are expected to create 700 jobs at peak.

Power Plants’ Connection Infrastructure Will Be Shared with the Chafariz Wind Complex

The location of the photovoltaic plants enhances the operational synergy of the company’s businesses. The project is being built approximately 11 kilometers from the Santa Luzia II substation, which is part of the transmission project acquired by the company in lot 6 of auction 002/2017, with energization expected this year.

Moreover, the connection infrastructure of the plants will be shared with the Chafariz Wind Complex, where 15 parks are being installed, totaling an installed capacity of 471.2 MW.

Neoenergia has 4 GW of installed capacity in generation, with 88% from renewable energy, and is implementing an additional 1 GW through the construction of new wind parks. In transmission, there are 1,400 km of lines in operation and 5,300 km under construction. Through the Neoenergia Institute, it promotes sustainable development through socio-environmental actions and thus contributes to improving the quality of life for communities where the company operates, especially the most vulnerable people, always aiming for sustainable development.

The company is the first in the country to exclusively sponsor the Brazilian Women’s National Soccer Team, having named the national competition, which is now called the Brasileirão Feminino Neoenergia. Since January 2021, it has been part of the B3 Corporate Sustainability Index – Brazil, Stock Exchange, Counter – which includes companies that have the best practices in governance and corporate sustainability.

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

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.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

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.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

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.

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.

Viaduct used every day by cars, buses, and pedestrians in the center of a São Paulo city becomes a legal case after a report indicates “imminent danger,” cracks, corrosion, and high lethality risk.

Project created by a UFS student defeats European competitors in an engineering award held in Paris and highlights the advancement of Brazilian science with an innovative solution, developed in a public academic environment and recognized by international experts in the technological field.

The seemingly endless sand is disappearing: the world extracts 50 billion tons per year from rivers and beaches, a volume comparable to 19,000 pyramids of Giza, while mafias profit, islands disappear, and city concrete is threatened until 2050.

Scientists drill 8,000 feet of ice in Antarctica and race against time before the hole freezes over again to bury the world’s deepest seismometers and turn the South Pole into a giant ear for earthquakes across the entire planet.

Rice in space becomes a scientific bet for China to understand how microgravity can alter the genetics of the most important grain for Asian food security and reveal if future generations of the plant can be born, grow, and maintain their biological identity away from Earth.
