Camilo Santana, the governor of Ceará, stated that the state has great potential to produce electricity from renewable sources, especially wind. The Ming Yang project will ensure the state’s growth in renewables, generate jobs, and create income for the people of Ceará, the governor added.

Ming Yang manufactures wind turbines, photovoltaic (PV) products, and smart energy solutions and is considered a pioneer in offshore wind innovation. According to market researcher Wood Mackenzie, the company ranked sixth globally in turbine installations in 2019.

Details and more information about amounts or dates for the execution of the offshore wind farm construction project in Ceará have not been disclosed by the parties involved.

Good Winds for Brazilian Offshore

Brazil is expanding its horizons for offshore wind energy generation projects, especially in the Northeast of the country, where the potential is greater due to its extensive coastline and favorable wind climatic conditions.

Studies show that the potential for offshore wind energy production in Brazil is 11,000 gigawatts, with 57% located in nine states in the Northeast region, notably Maranhão, Piauí, Ceará, and Rio Grande do Norte.

Offshore Wind Farm Construction Project in Rio Grande do Norte Closer to Being Realized

The offshore wind farm construction project in Rio Grande do Norte is getting closer to being executed! BI Energia presented details of the proposal’s scope to the State Government in a virtual meeting held last Thursday (03), and it was established that the Memorandum of Understanding will be signed by the interested parties within two weeks.
