After Reaching 5 GW in Its Wind Turbine Model, Vestas Creates a New Operation Focused on Latin America Where Brazil Will Play a Major Role in New Investments in Renewable Energy.

Due to changes in Vestas’ internal organization, a new operation focused on the Latin American region has been created. The new operation is set to start on January 1, 2022, under the leadership of executive Eduardo Ricotta and promises new investments in the Brazilian renewable energy market, primarily in the offshore wind industry.

New Vestas Operation in Latin America Attracts Investments

Before the announcement, Latin America was considered a sub-region of business for Vestas, but with the company’s new renewable energy investment configuration, the region will become a unique and consolidated unit starting next year. Even operating in 34 Latin American countries, in this new investment operation, Brazil will have a major role, given that the country is one of the company’s main markets in the renewable energy sector.

In May, Vestas received orders for 5 GW for its V150-4.2 MW Wind Turbine. The model began manufacturing in 2019, in Aquiraz (CE), and so far, 2 GW are already in production. With the new investment operation, Eduardo Ricotta and other regional presidents recognized the potential and announced they would meet with Vestas Group President and CEO Henrik Andersen.

Partnerships That Led to the Success of Vestas’ Wind Turbine

In early May, Vestas partnered with Omega Energia for the supply of 47 turbines of the model, which will be used in the Bahia project. At the time, Ricotta stated that Omega is one of the leaders in the renewable energy sector in the Brazilian market.

He also stated that through investments like this, Vestas reached the 5 GW sold. This demonstrates that the turbine is well-suited to Brazilian climatic conditions.

About Vestas

As a Danish company that has been in the market since 1945, Vestas holds the title of the world’s largest company in wind energy production. In addition, the company has offices in 24 countries and has installed its wind turbines in over 74 countries.

Although it was founded in 1945, Vestas began manufacturing wind turbines only in 1979. Previously, the company worked with applications for domestic use, manufacturing agricultural equipment, intercoolers, and hydraulic cranes respectively.

About Vestas

In the cold desert of Ladakh, where it hardly rains, engineer Sonam Wangchuk created the ice stupa, a tower that freezes winter water and stores it for irrigating crops in the spring, a simple engineering feat that mimics nature.

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.

Almost 6,000 residents live concentrated along a single street nearly 9 km long in the interior of Poland. Houses form a continuous row, and behind them, narrow agricultural strips emerge, creating one of the most unusual rural patterns in Europe.

Chinese woman planted trees for decades while sand buried part of her house, received $5,000 from an American in 1999, and helped transform the desert into a forest of 8 million trees in China.

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.

Described by astronauts as one of the most unlikely natural phenomena on Earth, the Okavango Delta spreads over up to 15,000 square kilometers in the middle of the desert and transforms Botswana into a living labyrinth of channels, islands, and flooded areas.

They planted a sea of eucalyptus to produce cellulose, but the monoculture turned into a green desert, dried up springs and rivers, and pushed families out of regions in Minas Gerais and Bahia.

Two new 300cc models from QJ Motor are expected to arrive in Brazil as SBM to target the CB 300F and shake up the low-displacement market, with more power and liquid cooling than Honda.

Federal Police involved in the case to identify the person responsible for hacking the Civil Defense system, which sent ten false alerts, frightened residents of different capitals, and turned messages about real risks into notifications with “misanthropy” and even alien attacks.

Extreme drought causes ghost village to reappear at the bottom of the reservoir that supplies Athens, revealing houses, a school, and ruins swallowed since the 1980s as the lake shrinks and exposes the water crisis threatening the capital of Greece.

Camaro may reappear in 2027, but not as you remember: Chevrolet prepares the return of the icon with four doors, manual transmission, and an extreme performance version to face the new era of sports cars.

In Virginia, a family of small-scale farmers refused to swap the countryside for the city and transformed their milk production into award-winning artisanal cheese from Mantiqueira de Minas.

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.
