The Lagoa dos Ventos III Wind Farm Will Be Implemented in 3 Municipalities in Piauí. This Is the Sixth Partnership Between Enel and afaplan for Renewable Energy Projects
The afaplan has been contracted for Owner’s Engineering in the implementation of the Lagoa dos Ventos III Wind Farm, in the municipalities of Lagoa do Barro, Queimada Nova, and Dom Inocêncio, in Piauí. The complex will have an installed capacity of 396 MW and is owned by ENEL Green Power.

This new Park is an extension of the Lagoa dos Ventos I and II Wind Farms, which have 716 MW of installed capacity and are the largest wind project (1.1 GW) currently under construction in South America, and for which afaplan is the Owner’s Engineering.
With this new service, afaplan once again strengthens its relationship with ENEL Green Power as its client (this is already the 6th project of this partnership), demonstrating that the company creates conditions for high levels of trust, both commercially and technically and contractually, in such a competitive market with high supply like Brazil.

The world has bet on green hydrogen as the fuel of the future, but now faces the side effect: producing 1 kilogram requires about 9 liters of ultrapure water, and the largest projects on the planet are precisely in the driest regions of the Earth, where water is already scarce for people.
The company has been dedicated to Renewable Energies for over 15 years, having helped install about 11.5 GW, of which 6.2 GW in Brazil (4.7 GW from Wind Farms and 1.5 GW from Photovoltaic Solar Plants), for some of the largest renewable energy generation players in Brazil – EDF, ENEL, EDPR, Total Eren, Rio Energy, AES Tietê, Quadran, CSI, Neoenergia, Echoenergia, Engie, Voltália and in the GD area Faro, Axis and Green Yellow, for which it has already provided more than one service.
Founded in 1985, afaplan provides EPCM (Engineering, Procurement and Construction Management) services and other areas of Construction Engineering, has work experience in various cultures and environments (15 countries across 3 continents), and currently has offices in São Paulo and Mossoró (Brazil), Porto and Lisbon (Portugal), Maputo (Mozambique), and Luanda (Angola).
