Illiterate or semi-literate grandmothers were trained to repair solar systems, open rural workshops, and light up homes that still depended on kerosene.
The company invested by Votorantim S.A plans to take advantage of the high potential of 636 MWp (megawatts peak) of its new photovoltaic plant to expand its operations in the region.
According to the new contract with SKIC Brasil for the project, the Chilean company will be responsible for all stages of EPC (Engineering, Procurement & Construction) of the project.
Thus, it will provide engineering services, supply of materials, construction, assembly, and start-up of the plant.
In addition, the company will also be responsible for the design of the 230kV transmission line, approximately 9 km long, which will connect the solar power plant to the Brazilian energy system.
Mobilization For Auren Energia’s Project Of Works Is Already Underway After The Agreement With SKIC Brasil For The Solar Power Plant In MG
Auren Energia has high expectations for the future of its operations with the new solar energy project in Minas Gerais.
SKIC Brasil celebrated the signing of the new agreement with the energy company for the construction project of the plant.
“This is a major achievement for SKIC, and the first photovoltaic plant project we will work on in Brazil, which strengthens our presence in the energy sector,” celebrated SKIC Brasil’s CEO, Robson Campos.
“This is a great opportunity for us to advance in Brazil in the renewable energy segment, with high-quality EPC projects, demonstrating to the market SKIC’s planning, execution, and management capabilities in this sector,” concluded the executive.
