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.
