“Our first Plants will be in the states of Rio Grande do Sul, São Paulo, Paraná, Rio de Janeiro, and Ceará, marking the start of our initiatives with renewable energy. These solar power plants will generate more than 51 thousand MWh per year, enough to meet the consumption of approximately 300 complete Ipiranga service stations (stations with AmPm and Jet Oil franchises),” the company highlighted on its LinkedIn profile LinkedIn.

The Ipiranga network also emphasized that resellers and franchisees will be able to access solar energy without any type of investment required!

GDSolar will be responsible for the construction, operation, and maintenance of the plants. The expectation is to start generating by April of next year. The Ipiranga solar power plant aims, in addition to production, to support the operational efficiency and financial health of its resellers and franchisees. This is because the electricity bill is the second largest operating cost for its network.

The Ipiranga Solar Plant aims to generate renewable energy and support the operational efficiency and financial health of its resellers and franchisees. This is because the electricity bill is the second largest operating cost for its network.

The electricity provided by the plants is expected to save up to 15% on the electricity costs of the service stations, achieving a cumulative savings of R﹩ 74 million across the participating network throughout the entire project. Additionally, the benefit is offered at no extra cost or any investment from the resellers and franchisees.

About the Ipiranga Network

While in Brazil a 10-story building takes 2 years to complete, in China a company stacks pre-fabricated modules and raises the entire building in just 28 hours and 45 minutes.

The oldest tree in the world, alive since before the birth of Jesus Christ, is cut down in a scientific study and the case changes environmental preservation rules.

An entire island in the Pacific wants to surround itself with a colossal barrier against the ocean to try to escape increasingly violent waves and not be swallowed by the sea in the coming decades.

After ten days orbiting the Moon, science confirms that the astronauts of the Artemis II mission return with altered bodies.

Peru built a tunnel at an altitude of 4,738 meters cutting through the Andes Mountains, and the road leading to it reaches 4,818 meters, making it the highest paved road in the entire world.

Seen from space, an image taken by an astronaut shows in Argentine Patagonia the exact point where a colossal glacier, a turquoise-blue lake, and a greenish arm of water meet, creating one of the rarest and most impressive landscapes in the region.

In the Saudi Arabian desert, the world’s largest green hydrogen plant is 80% complete and will use 4 gigawatts of solar and wind energy to produce 600 tons of clean fuel per day when it opens in 2027.

As if building a hospital in 10 days wasn’t enough, China now surprises the world by transforming a jet into an airborne hospital with surgeries and care on board.

India has connected for the first time a nuclear reactor that generates more fuel than it consumes — it produces 500 MW, cost nearly $1 billion, took 22 years, and places the country among the few with this technology in the world.

Suape Port is receiving R$ 15.8 billion to become the largest green hydrogen hub in Latin America — and a partnership with China promises an additional R$ 8 billion.

Petrobras robots dove nearly 3,000 meters deep and 201 km off the coast of Rio de Janeiro confirmed what geologists suspected — there is more oil hidden in the pre-salt of Campos.

For the first time in history, an allied nuclear submarine launched and recovered an American drone underwater without surfacing — and the test changes underwater warfare forever.
