Enel Green Power, the Brazilian renewable energy subsidiary of the Enel Group, recently started commercial operations of the Lagoa dos Ventos wind farm, the largest of its kind in South America and the largest of the Italian company worldwide. The facility, with a capacity of 716 MW, is located in three cities in the state of Piauí: Lagoa do Barro do Piauí, Queimada Nova, and Dom Inocêncio. According to the company, the project had an investment of around R$ 3 billion.

According to data released by Enel Green Power, the wind farm in Piauí consists of 230 wind turbines. The company also noted that, in December 2020, Enel announced the start of construction of the new Lagoa dos Ventos III wind project, with 396 MW.

With the new wind farm, which will require an investment of about 360 million euros, the total capacity of Lagoa dos Ventos will reach approximately 1.1 GW. The entire wind complex will have 302 wind turbines and can generate around 5.0 TWh per year. Additionally, when fully operational, the 716 MW installation can generate more than 3.3 TWh per year, avoiding the emission of more than 1.6 million tons of CO2 into the atmosphere.
