According to the municipal secretary of Industry and Commerce (Semic), Nilson Carlos Stefani Violato, the state government’s project in Paraná, through BRDE, strengthens so-called “renewable energies,” benefiting the municipality of Arapongas itself. “The inclusion of our municipality strengthens Mayor Sérgio Onofre’s initiative to launch the Technological Park for renewable energies and emerging technologies. We will be a space, an ecosystem where small-scale plants, from one to four megawatts, can be implemented in Arapongas, generating resources for public lighting,” said Violato.

In total, BRDE released R$ 125 million in funds. The seven cities awarded were: Campo Mourão (R$ 16.2 million), Cascavel (R$ 20.1 million), Florestópolis (R$ 893 thousand), Londrina (R$ 71.4 million), Mauá da Serra (R$ 2 million), and Roncador (R$ 3.3 million) where Arapongas secured a share of R$ 11.4 million

Investments in Solar Power Plant in The City of Arapongas, Paraná

Arapongas plans to use the million-dollar investment for solar power plant and lighting projects in the city. The project’s goal is to meet the energy consumption of public buildings.

These actions allow local development, as well as adding value to the residents’ lives, providing better urban mobility conditions, and acting for social and environmental responsibility, investing in solar energy and generating cost savings for consumers.

BRDE has supported projects related to clean and renewable energies; waste management and recycling; rational and efficient water use; sustainable agribusiness; and sustainable cities. “Our goal is to continue to align with municipal interests, providing credit to enable ongoing regional improvements,” stated Bley.

Instead of burning or burying old tires, an American city is transforming about 2,000 of them into the street itself, paving its first sections with a quieter and more durable rubber asphalt.

China transforms desert-devastated area into the world’s largest artificial forest, planting trees for 60 years, blocking sand that reached Beijing, and creating a “green lung” of 92,000 hectares in a region once considered lost.

Greek island offers free housing for volunteers, but there’s a condition: you need to take care of rescued cats.

China has deployed snake-shaped robots to slide along power lines, where they have already inspected over 130 kilometers of cables using cameras and sensors to detect damaged wires, worn-out parts, and overheating.

Engineers want to carve through Africa with a giant canal to bring water from the world’s second-largest river to a dying lake on the edge of the Sahara Desert that has already lost 90% of its water.

Dissatisfied with seeing women outside the major breweries, a South African revives ancestral tradition, creates a brand with African ingredients, and trains new female brewmasters.

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.

Africa has about 500,000 cell towers and most still burn diesel to operate, while companies rush to cover antennas with solar energy and avoid signal blackouts.

Farmers swapped diesel for solar panels in Pakistan, powered irrigation pumps almost cost-free, expanded rice fields, and now groundwater has become a red alert in the countryside.

Migrant workers left the world’s largest renewable energy park in India after extreme heat, 12-hour shifts, delayed wages, and poor accommodations at a site that still promises to supply 18 million homes.

Taiwanese fishermen accepted offshore wind turbines in the name of clean energy, but now they say that old routes have disappeared, fish have decreased, and income has become uncertain on the coast.
