Shell Wants to Build Solar Power Projects with Capacity of 323 MW in Paraíba

The oil company Shell wants to develop a solar power project in Paraíba. The project includes seven parks with an installed capacity of approximately 323 MW. The application for authorization from Aneel is the first step to enable power generation projects. However, it is unclear when Shell intends to implement the project, which generally depends on commercial negotiations.

The Anglo-Dutch company submitted a request to the National Electric Energy Agency (Aneel) aiming to obtain authorization for a photovoltaic complex to be built in the city of São João do Rio do Peixe, according to a publication in the Official Gazette of the Union from yesterday (20).

In June of last year, Maria Gabriela da Rocha, solar energy business development manager for Shell in Latin America, told Reuters that the company was negotiating the future production of the solar project in Brazil.

A giant printer called the “Ferrari” of concrete has landed in Latin America and can already build a 120-square-meter house in just 48 hours, making the traditional construction site look like something from the last century.

Great Atlantic Sargassum Belt has ceased to be a climatic phenomenon and has become a biological system that feeds on itself, with 8,000 kilometers in length, 37 million tons of algae, and scientists confirm that it is now permanent.

A British company has installed in the middle of the ocean the world’s first floating platform that generates electricity 24 hours a day from the temperature difference between the surface and the depths of the Atlantic, without relying on wind or sun.

China is building an artificial island in the middle of the sea, covering 20 km², to construct the largest offshore airport in the world, the Dalian Jinzhouwan. This $4.3 billion project is anchored on more than 3,000 pillars embedded in the rock beneath the ocean and is scheduled to open in 2035.

Brazil will harvest a record crop of up to 357 million tons of grains, but it does not have the capacity to store a large part of it. The storage deficit has reached the highest level in history and is equivalent to almost the entire production of Argentina.

Engineers had to pour concrete mixed with tons of ice throughout entire nights in the Dubai desert to erect the Burj Khalifa; any carelessness could clog the pipes half a mile high.

The James Webb telescope spotted a planet 700 light-years from Earth with mornings full of sand clouds and nights with clear skies, the temperature difference between the two hemispheres reaches an impressive 170 degrees.

The Japanese ship Chikyu lowered a drill six kilometers below the Pacific seabed and brought up mud laden with rare earths, in a test that could pave the way to break China’s dominance over technology metals.

While the world is living in 2026, Nepal has already entered 2083 and uses a calendar that intrigues visitors, appears in official documents, and makes astronomers decide when each new year really begins, far from the standard adopted in much of the planet.

Copper ink developed by American researchers withstands 6 months in seawater and could reduce the cost of solar panels, electronic boards, and durable devices.
