The Neoenergia Unit in Campinas, São Paulo, Has a Capacity of 66 MVA and Dispenses with the Presence of Electricians and Operators

On last Monday, the 23rd, Neoenergia energized the Leme 2 substation in Campinas, São Paulo, through the distributor Elektro. The project, which had an investment of over R$ 20 million, will benefit more than 40,000 people. The project also brings a significant improvement in reliability and a great growth for the inland region of São Paulo.

The new substation has a capacity of 66 MVA, distributed across 10 feeders of 13.8 kV, and features GIS technology, meaning a gas-insulated switchgear, which provides greater reliability and practicality in terms of maintenance, and in case of the need to act on atypical incidents, making it possible to resolve incidents more quickly, thereby reducing the customer’s waiting time for the complete restoration of energy.

About Neoenergia:

Mother and daughter build a 70 m² house with more than 8,000 discarded glass bottles and impress with their creativity; known as the Casa de Sal, the property is located on Itamaracá Island, in Pernambuco.

The river that “dies” in the desert never reaches the sea and yet gives life to one of Africa’s largest natural refuges in a truly impressive way.

He transformed an abandoned plastic water tank into an underground house in the “hobbit hole” style, using only repurposed pallet wood, without heavy machinery or expensive labor.

Libya built over 4,000 kilometers of underground pipelines to bring water from the Sahara to coastal cities in a project that the government itself called the Eighth Wonder of the World.

China transforms desert-devastated area into the world’s largest artificial forest, planting trees for 60 years, blocking sand that reached Beijing, and creating a “green lung” of 92,000 hectares in a region once considered lost.

Toyota launches “family hybrid van” with 7 or 8 seats, 1.8 hybrid engine, fuel consumption of up to 23.8 km/l, and a price equivalent to about R$ 104,000 without taxes, below the Tiggo 8 Pro Plug-in Hybrid sold in Brazil: meet the Noah Hybrid 2026 in Japan.

Desert sand, previously discarded for being too smooth for concrete, becomes an ecological brick in the United Arab Emirates, dispensing with Portland cement, curing at room temperature, and attempting to transform dunes useless for construction into raw material for a new arid engineering.

To escape one of the most dangerous seas in Europe, Norway is advancing with a giant tunnel that will allow ships to pass through a mountain, avoiding storms, unpredictable waves, and a route that has frightened sailors for generations.

INSS issues alert to retirees: decisive deadline ends this week and millions of beneficiaries may lose access to amounts that already total R$ 3.2 billion; measure involves deductions made between 2020 and 2025

Forget the dollar: Brazil, China, Russia, and India accelerate testing of the BRICS system to challenge SWIFT, reduce US influence, and expand transactions in national currencies, which already account for 67% of the bloc’s trade.

Forget the slow sweeper: China creates a vacuum truck that cleans highways at up to 80 km/h, sucking up stones, dust, and metals from the asphalt and promises to reduce blockages without stopping traffic.

Brazil conducts the largest cleanup in history and removes over 800 tons of electronic waste; the initiative mobilizes 300 volunteers, has already collected 47 tons in 2025, and prevents thousands of devices from contaminating soil and water.

Brazilian scientists are simultaneously advancing two research projects on clean hydrogen and driving solutions that could transform the energy matrix, enhance industrial competitiveness, and accelerate large-scale emission reduction targets.

Advancement in renewable energy: A R$ 150 million project launched by Petrobras and Finep aims to create state-of-the-art electrolyzers for green hydrogen, strengthening national research and preparing Brazil to compete in a billion-dollar energy market.

Illiterate or semi-literate grandmothers were trained to repair solar systems, open rural workshops, and light up homes that still depended on kerosene.

The world has bet on green hydrogen as the fuel of the future, but now faces the side effect: producing 1 kilogram requires about 9 liters of ultrapure water, and the largest projects on the planet are precisely in the driest regions of the Earth, where water is already scarce for people.

Africa has about 500,000 cell towers and most still burn diesel to operate, while companies rush to cover antennas with solar energy and avoid signal blackouts.
