Shell Aims to Increase Its Global Investments in New Energies to US$ 3 Billion and Sees Brazil as a Priority in the Solar Energy Segment

Shell has a team dedicated exclusively to seeking competitive solar energy projects in Brazil. In alignment with the company’s strategy to invest in new energies, the company intends to increase its investments worldwide to around US$ 3 billion and is looking for competitive projects in Brazil, as it considers the country to have significant growth potential in the sector. See here! The largest wind farm in South America will be in Piauí.

According to a statement made yesterday (09/19) by the company’s president in Brazil, André Araujo, “We are establishing our new energies team. We already have an established group in the solar area and are seeking business opportunities. We do not have pressure to have projects by a specific date, but we will look for projects that make sense and are competitive. At some point, something will come out.”

In the coming years, Shell will be one of the largest producers of natural gas from the pre-salt and is looking to enter the gas-fired power generation market or sell to the country’s large industrial consumers.

Currently, the company’s major client in Brazil is Petrobras, but the Brazilian state-owned company has committed to CADE not to renew contracts for gas purchases from its partners in the production fields.

However, the company’s president stated that the current focus is to find buyers for what Shell will produce additionally and not for the gas that Petrobras does not purchase.
“The existing contracts will need to be adjusted, but we are looking closely at growth opportunities in volume… The great opportunity will be in new volumes, finding ways [to sell this gas],” he stated.

The company’s participation in the Macaé thermoelectric plant project in RJ is already a demonstration of how it intends to use the pre-salt gas. Shell’s intention is to expedite the plant’s operation scheduled for 2023.

Gaddafi built the world’s largest artificial river under the Sahara — it’s 4,000 km of giant pipes that pump 40,000-year-old fossil water to entire cities in Libya.

Discovery in Africa scares even scientists: a study published on April 23 reveals that the crust in Turkana has become so thin that it could pave the way for the continent’s division and the emergence of an ocean in the future, in a gigantic geological transformation.

Japanese garbage collectors treat filthy trucks as if they were dealership cars, and the obsession with cleanliness is so absurd that they invented a washing machine that only exists for this type of vehicle.

Seen from high in the stratosphere, a Lego Star Devourers rose to 34,988 meters attached to a balloon, returned to Earth intact, and entered the Guinness World Records in a record that seems like science fiction.

In 1991, Brazil’s GDP was almost double India’s, and today it is little more than half: while India grew 6.5% per year and trained engineers, Brazil preferred to train lawyers, and now it is rushing to strengthen ties with the world’s fourth-largest economy.

India built a 21.8-kilometer sea bridge to connect Mumbai to Navi Mumbai, and a journey of up to 120 minutes fell to about 20.

South America’s most famous oasis has an emerald lagoon formed by underground waters in the Peruvian desert. It is located 300 km from Lima, is surrounded by giant dunes, and holds a mysterious mermaid legend.

The electric classic fever resurrected Kombi, Fusca and other street icons, created a billion-dollar market of nostalgia on wheels, and angered collectors who see restomods as an assault against the soul of classics.

The gigantic supersonic Concorde flew so fast that 100 wealthy Americans booked an entire flight to outrun the sunset, pop champagne at Mach 2, and celebrate New Year’s three times.

Massive, isolated and with no crew on board, this “ghost” oil platform operates alone in the middle of the ocean and ushers in a new era in exploration.

Few remember, but the 2024 drought in the Amazon already affects transport, energy, and agriculture. Rivers are reaching critical levels, smoke covers cities, and the scenario triggers a global alert about climate change.

A strong cold front is advancing across Brazil now, but researchers warn that extreme heat is expected to increase, affect work capacity, reduce people’s income, and cause billion-dollar economic losses in the coming decades.

The fastest-growing risk in Brazilian cities isn’t only apparent during heavy rainfall; it has already increased by 145% since 1985, covers 1.2 million hectares, and can transform floods and inundations into an increasingly common threat.
