The Thermoelectric Plant Installed at the Port of Suape Already Has an Expected Operation Date for Mid-November 2021 and Investments Reach R$ 3.1 Billion
The Port of Suape will receive the installation of a thermoelectric plant powered by Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG), which will generate approximately two thousand jobs during the construction and operational phases, as well as provide even more visibility to the southern coast of Pernambuco, where the Complex is located. The execution and operation of this project will involve around R$ 3 billion in investments.

Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Thermoelectric Plant Has an Estimated Generation Capacity of 1.3 GW
According to the Pernambuco government and the companies involved in the project, the plant will have an estimated generation capacity of 1.3 GW, which is 30% more than the hydroelectric plant located in Sobradinho. At the end of the implementation of the project at the Port of Suape, there will be a large energy auction promoted by the National Electric Energy Agency and the Ministry of Mines and Energy, already scheduled to take place in the first half of 2021.
At least 30% of the investment will come from the entrepreneur, and 70% will come from development banks. The construction will occupy about 16.5 hectares within the Port of Suape, which has already secured a preliminary license issued by the Pernambuco Environmental Agency (CPRH).
