Additionally, the plants obtained an exemption from PIS/PASEP and Cofins charges amounting to R$ 71.4 million, through the approval of the project under the Special Regime for Infrastructure Development (Reidi), thus, the total investment for the wind farm reached around R$ 806.6 million.

The Ministry of Mines and Energy also assigned responsibilities to Neoenergia, approving five more wind farms in the Oitis Complex, located in the cities of Dom Inocêncio and Casa Novas, both in the state of Piauí. The forecast is that the plants will generate a combined total of about 242 MW, with 44 generating units. The project, which aims to finalize by the end of 2022, will raise R$ 1.3 billion in resources and already counts with around R$ 134.5 million approved by Reidi.

In addition to the investments already mentioned above, the MME also approved other projects. In the municipality of Tanque Novo, in Bahia, which aims to generate around 5.3 MW with an investment of R$ 91.5 million. In the state of Rio Grande do Norte, with the photovoltaic plant of Serrado do Mel II, with 20 MW of power through 20 new photovoltaic modules and an investment of R$ 67.6 million.

Last but not least, also in the state of Rio Grande do Norte, in the municipality of Pedro Avelino, the MME and Reidi approved the wind farm of Monte Verde VI, totaling R$ 230.5 million, excluding charges. The farm will feature eleven wind turbines, which together have the capacity to generate 46.2 MW of power.
