Advancement in Renewable Energy with Construction Start

Statkraft, a global leader in hydropower and the largest renewable energy generator in Europe, announces internal approval for the construction of two innovative hybrid solar projects in Bahia. The projects, Brazil Hybrid Solar, VSE Hybrid Solar, and MdC Hybrid Solar, mark the company’s official entry into the solar energy sector, with operations expected to start in 2025. This development, entirely conceived in-house, includes a pioneering approach with battery integration using BESS technology.

Integrated Wind and Solar Complex

The VSE Hybrid Solar and MdC Hybrid Solar projects will be connected to the Ventos de Santa Eugênia and Morro do Cruzeiro wind complexes, respectively. With a combined capacity of 228 MWac, they represent a milestone in the group’s renewable energy generation. The Ventos de Santa Eugênia Wind Complex, the largest project of the group outside Europe, is in its final construction phase in Bahia, with the capacity to generate 2,300 Gigawatt-hours (GWh) annually, enough to supply over one million Brazilian households.

Innovation and Sustainability

In addition to the Ventos de Santa Eugênia complex, Statkraft is also constructing the greenfield wind complex Morro do Cruzeiro, which is expected to generate 386 GWh of renewable energy per year. Fernando De Lapuerta, CEO of Statkraft, highlights the importance of these projects for the company’s strategy, reflecting its commitment to accelerating the energy transition and integrating different technologies into a single complex.

Aneel Authorization and Strategic Planning

The company has already received approval from the National Electric Energy Agency (Aneel) for the implementation of these solar projects. They fall under Aneel’s regulations for hybrid plants, leveraging the complementarity of wind and solar power generation facilities. Construction is scheduled for the first half of next year.

About Statkraft

With 5,700 employees in 21 countries, Statkraft positions itself as a global leader in hydropower and the largest generator of renewable energy in Europe. The company, headquartered in Florianópolis, controls 18 renewable generation assets in Brazil, including the recent acquisition of Enerfín. As one of Brazil’s largest wind power generators, Statkraft exceeds 2GW of installed capacity in the country. The company is pioneering the offer of traceable renewable energy with origin guarantees in Brazil, certified by I-REC.

Conclusion: Towards a Sustainable Future

With these new hybrid solar projects, Statkraft reinforces its leadership role in renewable energy generation. The company continues to expand its portfolio, integrating innovation and sustainability, and stands out as a key player in the global energy transition. Statkraft’s commitment to clean and efficient energy production strengthens its position as a visionary company in the renewable energy market.

Conclusion: Towards a Sustainable Future

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.

Seen from space, an image taken by an astronaut shows an unlikely oasis in the Saudi Arabian desert, protected by a terrain that slows the advance of sand, surrounded by green circles, remnants of an extinct lake and nearly 10,000 years of preserved history.

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.

With 7.4 trillion tons of artificial snow pumped in 10 years, an extreme operation could stabilize the West Antarctic ice sheet and prevent a sea level rise of more than 3 meters, but it would require snow cannons, ocean water, and energy on an almost industrial scale at the end of the world.

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.

China wants to eliminate diesel trucks, betting on electric models that can cut oil consumption by up to 50%, reduce pollution, and change cargo transportation worldwide.

Melting ice is altering the planet’s weather, days are getting longer, Earth’s rotation is slowing down, and scientists are pointing to a phenomenon not seen in millions of years.

More than €600,000 in gold hidden in pots and an “invisible” safe inside an old house turns a small French town into the stage for a discovery that reveals how entire fortunes can remain buried for decades without anyone noticing.

Japan enters the war with the Terra A1 drone priced at $2,000 and turns the math against Putin by taking down swarms of Iranian drones for a fraction of the cost.

Scientists made electrons flow like a frictionless liquid within graphene — the result violated a law of physics that had been in place for over a century by 200 times…
