To Face The Water Crisis, The MS Government Will Reactivate The William Arjona Thermal Power Plant, The First To Use Natural Gas In Brazil. The Unit Will Create Various Jobs And Income For The State

This Wednesday (28), Minister of Mines and Energy Bento Albuquerque was present alongside Governor Reinaldo Azambuja at the reactivation ceremony of the William Arjona thermal power plant in Campo Grande (MS). The unit will use natural gas for power generation, contributing to the energy sector of Mato Grosso do Sul, as well as generating jobs and income for the local population.

According to Azambuja, it is important to resume investments such as the reactivation of the thermal power plant that has been idle for four years. He stated that new partnerships were made through tax incentives and participation from MSGás and Energisa. In addition to energy, the thermal power plant will bring to the state ICMS, jobs, and new opportunities.

Minister Bento Albuquerque emphasized that the reactivation of the thermal power plant demonstrates that, although we are going through a water crisis, Brazil and Mato Grosso do Sul have other energy possibilities that are being installed, which is a great help at a moment like this.

Minister Of Mines And Energy Comes To MS To Reactivate The William Arjona Thermal Power Plant

Leading the natural gas unit is Delta Geração, which entered the sector after the new regulatory framework in April. The unit resumed operations on July 10 and will be fully operational by next week. The president of Delta Geração, Luiz Fernando Vianna, stated that the energy produced at the plant is equivalent to 50% of the city’s energy consumption.

According to the executive, since it started operations on the 10th, it already has three machines capable of producing 120 MW, and next week, five machines will go into operation, potentially reaching a capacity of 190 MW. For the president of MSGás, Rui Pires, the reactivation of the thermal power plant will contribute to the state economy by generating jobs and income.

According to the executive, the state benefits greatly. Every time gas enters the country, it generates ICMS for the state. Pires also explains that the energy generated at the natural gas unit goes to the national system but provides energy security to the state. Thus, it is a partnership that brings benefits to all.

The William Arjona plant was the first in Brazil to use natural gas through the Brazil-Bolivia gas pipeline. It was inaugurated in 1999 in Campo Grande but had not operated since 2017.

The unit has a maximum capacity to consume 1.3 million cubic meters of natural gas per day. To make the return of operations possible, the business group made the necessary arrangements with the Agepan (State Agency for Regulation of Public Services), Energisa, Aneel (National Electric Energy Agency), MSGás, and the Ministry of Mines and Energy, in addition to other representative bodies of the sector.

In attendance at the ceremony were Senator Soraya Thronicke, Federal Deputy Luíz Ovando, Secretaries Jaime Verruck, Eduardo Riedel, Geraldo Resende, among other authorities.
