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.

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.

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.

Spain installs two giant pipelines 2.2 km off the coast to draw water from the Mediterranean and supply a megafacility capable of producing 200 million liters of drinking water per day.

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.

This technology could retire washboards and regular washing machines: Xiaomi launches a three-drum washer with an automatic detergent dosing system, washes clothes at 95°C simultaneously, prevents cross-contamination, and costs less than R$ 3,000 in China.

In a country where about 75% of the territory is mountainous and little land is left for planting, Japan has turned scarcity into luxury, selling pairs of Yubari melons for amounts that reached nearly US$ 45,000 and cultivating the true wasabi that 90% of the world has never tasted.

Abandoned boars and pigs in Fukushima create fast-breeding hybrids and turn the nuclear area into a natural laboratory

A bi-oceanic railway is expected to connect the Brazilian coast to the Chinese port of Chancay in Peru and cross the South American continent from coast to coast. It is part of the same package of R$ 140 billion in railways that the government is opening to investors later this year.

Japan is about to launch a satellite that captures solar energy in space and sends electricity to Earth in the form of microwaves. The technology promises to generate energy 24 hours a day without relying on clouds, night, or solar panels on the ground.
