Solar Power Plant, Complexo Sol do Sertão, Promises to Generate About 4 Thousand New Jobs for the State of Bahia and Will Have 1,075,200 Solar Panels

In the city of Oliveira dos Brejinhos, in Bahia, the installation of the Complexo Sol do Sertão, which will consist of 8 solar power plants, promises to generate around 4 thousand direct and indirect jobs throughout its construction. The solar power plant will have a capacity of 474 MWp and will have more than a million solar panels.

5 Largest Solar Plants in Brazil, “How Much Did This Cost?

According to the deployment director of Essentia Energia, Gilberto Peixoto, the plant with 1,075,200 solar panels is expected to go into operation by the second half of this year, that is, from July to December 2021.

A unique characteristic of the project, which promises to generate more than 4 thousand new jobs, is the thermal sensation of the location where the 8 solar plants will be installed, which can reach temperatures above 40°C.

According to clarification from the engineering director of Sungrow, Ricardo Alonso, the inverters that will be supplied by the company for the solar panel complex in Bahia can produce the same energy at elevated temperatures due to their cooling technology.

According to him, the inverters can operate in high temperature conditions without losing performance and producing the same energy at elevated temperatures, such as 45°C.

The Promising Future of Bahia in the Renewable Energy Market

The hopeful scenario, especially in Bahia, has been leading in solar and wind energy generation for two years. Of all solar energy generated in the country, about 32% is produced in Bahia. Following closely are Minas Gerais (21%), Piauí (15%), São Paulo (11%), and Ceará (8%).

The most exciting announcement in Bahia was the installation of the second largest hybrid park in the country, the Complexo Alfazema, which will be located between the cities of Barra do Estiva and Ibicoara. The idea is for this solar energy complex to generate about 11 thousand jobs, both directly and indirectly.

Atlas Renewable Energy Secures Investment for Solar Power Plant in MG That Will Have 880 Thousand Bifacial Modules

Atlas Renewable Energy will invest US$ 150 million in the solar power plant Lar do Sol – Casablanca, which aims to reduce about 50 thousand tons of CO2 per year. The company also states that it will contribute to the community by providing training for women in the MG community.

The estimated output of the solar power plant in MG is around 805 GWh per year. So far, this power purchase agreementis the largest involving investments in solar energy for providing sustainable energy to a private consumer in the country.

First Electric Car in the World with Solar Energy Recharging Capability to Be Launched in 2024

For the Dutch startup Lightyear, having an electric car that recharges its battery solely using solar energy is not the future; it is now! The company intends to accelerate the project of the first electric car recharged by solar energy and has committed to starting production for sale by mid-2024.

Lex Hoefsloot, CEO of Lightyear, stated in an interview that the company has plans not only for mass production of the Lightyear One but also intends to go further, with a project to develop an entire line of electric cars with batteries recharged by solar energy.

First Electric Car in the World with Solar Energy Recharging Capability to Be Launched in 2024

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

China is building an artificial island in the middle of the sea, covering 20 km², to construct the largest offshore airport in the world, the Dalian Jinzhouwan. This $4.3 billion project is anchored on more than 3,000 pillars embedded in the rock beneath the ocean and is scheduled to open in 2035.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

A British company has installed in the middle of the ocean the world’s first floating platform that generates electricity 24 hours a day from the temperature difference between the surface and the depths of the Atlantic, without relying on wind or sun.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

A robot named Walter does the work of five bricklayers per hour and can save the construction industry, where the average age of professionals is 46 years and almost no one wants to learn the trade anymore, in the United Kingdom.

The James Webb telescope spotted a planet 700 light-years from Earth with mornings full of sand clouds and nights with clear skies, the temperature difference between the two hemispheres reaches an impressive 170 degrees.

The seemingly endless sand is disappearing: the world extracts 50 billion tons per year from rivers and beaches, a volume comparable to 19,000 pyramids of Giza, while mafias profit, islands disappear, and city concrete is threatened until 2050.

Scientists drill 8,000 feet of ice in Antarctica and race against time before the hole freezes over again to bury the world’s deepest seismometers and turn the South Pole into a giant ear for earthquakes across the entire planet.

Rice in space becomes a scientific bet for China to understand how microgravity can alter the genetics of the most important grain for Asian food security and reveal if future generations of the plant can be born, grow, and maintain their biological identity away from Earth.

How much would a Toyota Hilux cost without tax in Brazil? A diesel pickup truck priced at R$ 250,000 could drop to around R$ 127,000, showing why pickup trucks have become a luxury product in the country.

Windows without a prison-like appearance gain momentum in 2026 and promise to completely transform residential facades with more natural lighting, discreet security, increased property value, and a modern look without the burden of the old iron bars that dominated Brazilian homes for decades.
