Proposal Aims at Implementing an Offshore Wind Farm in Rio Grande do Norte, Covering 300 Km² with 52 Wind Turbines of 12 MW Installed Capacity, Plus Two Substations

The offshore wind energy park construction project in Rio Grande do Norte is getting closer to starting! BI Energia presented details of the proposal’s scope to the State Government in a virtual meeting held last Thursday (03), and it was established that the Memorandum of Understanding will be signed among the stakeholders within two weeks.

Wind Potential of Rio Grande do Norte

Rio Grande do Norte is one of the states in the Northeast with the highest potential to host wind energy projects in the country. Currently, RN has 164 plants operating, 19 under construction, and another 84 contracted projects, where construction has not yet begun and has an installed capacity for generating 4,450 MW of energy.

According to the state’s governor, Fátima Bezerra, RN has been increasing its capacity, including through partnerships and investments like those from Bi Energia, and continues to lead the ranking of wind production in Brazil.

About Bi Energia

BI Energia is a Special Purpose Company (SPE) designed for constructing Brazil’s first offshore wind farm. The company is part of the BI Holding Participações e Investimentos group, which focuses on energy production and generation.

The BI Energia project is located in Caucaia-CE, between the ports of Pecém and Mucuripe, and is designed to supply approximately 25% of the state’s energy needs. This experience with projects in Ceará has accelerated offshore wind projects in Rio Grande do Norte.

Psychology states that the rarest mental strength today is not resilience or determination, but rather the ability to cope with uncertainty without immediately seeking distractions, explanations, or the opinion of someone else.

With more expensive oil and the risk of shortages, China is expanding the use of technology developed in Germany during World War II that transforms coal into plastics, fuels, and chemical products.
