The project of 10 wind farms called Santa Eugenia Winds is being developed by Statkraft, and it is expected to be the largest wind energy project by the company in South America, more than doubling its renewable energy capacity in the country.

Approximately 46 million reais will be invested in the creation of the wind farms, with the idea of benefiting the Bahia region and soon expanding to other Brazilian regions. The company claims to have ambitions to help Brazil adopt renewable policies.

The Choice of Location for the Wind Farms

Statkraft claims that it chose Bahia simply because the state is much closer to its existing assets and also states that the location was chosen due to the excellent wind conditions in the area, undoubtedly making it the best place for an onshore wind power park.

“The construction of the Santa Eugenia Winds wind farms represents a significant step towards achieving the goal of developing 6 GW of wind energy globally by 2025 and fulfilling our ambition to become a leading global renewable energy company,” said EVP International Power at Statkraft, Jürgen Tzschoppe.
