Even In The Midst Of The Pandemic, The Itaipu Dam Managed To Generate More Than Two Thousand Job Positions In The Civil Construction Industry

The Itaipu dam has over 30 projects in the civil construction industry and generates well over two thousand job positions – which boosts the Brazilian economy and drives investments for one of the fastest growing sectors both nationally and internationally.

More Than 1,400 Job Positions Generated Directly And Indirectly

Currently, the partnership and civil construction projects at the Itaipu dam have generated over 1,400 job positions and another two thousand positions will be distributed to the public in 2021.

The dam’s partnerships in construction benefit not only the company as a whole but also the population, as there are already over 800 scholarship holders who are intrinsically fighting the coronavirus pandemic throughout the Paraná region.

The idea is to generate more job positions in the civil construction industry, as the initial works of the bridge alone generated over 545 direct jobs on the Brazilian and Paraguayan banks. Indirectly, there are more than a thousand. The action of Itaipu reaches municipalities in the Western region, with projects in Cascavel, Guaíra, Santa Helena, and Ramilândia, among others.

About The Itaipu Dam

The Itaipu dam is a large hydroelectric dam on the Paraná River between Brazil and Paraguay. It is known for its nighttime light shows and views from the central lookout. The control room of the Production Building monitors the dam’s turbines.

Near the Paraguayan side, the Guarani Earth Museum has exhibitions about indigenous culture. To the north, the Tatí Yupí Sanctuary is a wildlife reserve with trails and birds.

About The Itaipu Dam

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.

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.

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 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.

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.

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.

She started by collecting oyster shells from restaurants and today she has already accumulated more than 10 tons to restore reefs, recover coastal habitats, and demonstrate how a common waste can become a tool for ocean conservation.

A surreal road in southern Brazil cuts through the Serra do Corvo Branco, revealing mountains that resemble pyramids, cliffs used in commercials, and a Santa Catarina village marked by a sad history before the access was fully paved.

Webb found a cradle of planets 5,550 light-years away where water almost disappears, and the disk around the star XUE 10 has CO₂ in regions where rocky worlds like Earth should be born, revealing a planetary chemistry very different from that which formed our Solar System.

Couple transforms abandoned land in Portugal, moves a 6-ton tiny house, hides a container on the slope, and builds a 50 m² deck in two days while advancing on the main house surrounded by glass and nature.

Giant trucks with no one in the cabin have already moved more than 8.6 billion tons of rock and ore around the world, equivalent to more than a thousand Great Pyramids, all without a single recorded injury.
