KWP Energia Solar CEO Explores Growth Potential and Environmental Benefits of Floating Solar Plants in Brazil In a recent statement, Ediléu Cardoso Jr., CEO of KWP Energia, discussed the growing competitiveness of floating solar plant technology compared to ground-mounted installations with fixed structures. KWP Energia is among the companies involved in installing the UFF Araucária, a 7 MWp floating solar plant located in the Billings dam, São Paulo. Despite the global perception of floating solar as a solution for land-scarce regions, Cardoso Jr. emphasized its relevance in Brazil, particularly in metropolitan areas where reservoirs serve as potential sites for solar generation close to energy consumption centers. The Billings dam, covering 10,500 hectares in São Paulo, presents […] Read the full story here: https://lnkd.in/dYvSBtKG #solarenergy #alternativeenergy #solarpv #pvsolar #photovoltaic #cleanenergy #cleantech #climatechange #middleeast #africa #india #asiapacific #asia #america #brazil #floatingsolarplants #kwpenergia #latinamerica #renewableenergy #solarenergy #southamerica

When “Samba” meets the pulse of Smart Energy, a Green Power Revolution is about to ignite in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Laying with brilliant sunshine conditions and abundant water resources, Brazil is breeding unlimited possibilities for a market of solar water conservancy industry. Are you curious about how can we not only use PV technology to efficiently manage water resources in this land teeming with vitality, but also promote sustainable agricultural development and even drive economic growth? Solartech will discuss it with you at Intersolar South America and show you our various solutions of solar water ecology equipments and application solutions, which has been used in more than 130 countries and regions around the world. We sincerely look forward to your visit! On the exhibition, we will provide you with an in-depth analysis about: - How to take advantages of Brazil’s abundant sunshine conditions to maximize the energy efficiency of solar pumping systems? - How can solar water conservancy system solutions help achieve dual improvements in water-saving irrigation and agricultural in Brazil? - What is the potential of solar water ecology technologies in protecting water resources and improving the ecological environment in Brazil? Awaiting to meet with you soon. Booth: B4.91C-B4.91D Date: Day27-29 August, 2024 Address: Expo Center Norte, Sao Paulo, Brazil. #intersolarsouthamerica #Brazil #SaoPaulo #solarpump #energiasolar # #BOMBEAMENTOPORENERGIASOLAR

Atlas Renewable Energy has secured R$1.5 billion ($273 million) in financing coordinated by Itau BBA for the construction of the Luiz Carlos solar PV complex in Minas Gerais, Brazil. “The financing of this project demonstrates our expertise and innovation in the renewable energy sector and represents a significant advancement for Atlas in promoting the energy transition for large energy consumers,” said Fábio Bortoluzo, Country Manager for Atlas Renewable Energy in Brazil. “We always strive to offer the best solutions to our customers, and with the Luiz Carlos photovoltaic complex, we are expanding the supply of clean energy safely and reliably, contributing to decarbonisation goals.” Atlas noted that R$750 million of the R$1.5 billion financing came from incentivised debentures under the Brazilian Law 12.431/2011, and certified as “Green Debentures” by Sustainable Fitch. The remaining R$720 million was obtained through commercial notes. This debenture is notable for being the first issued under the new Brazilian rules for classifying priority projects, established in Decree 11.964 in March 2024. The Luiz Carlos solar PV complex will be located in the city of Paracatu, Minas Gerais, and will have an installed capacity of 787 MWp. Once online in 2025, the solar complex will generate 1.863 GWh of clean electricity per annum, capable of powering equivalent to supplying energy to more than 870,000 Brazilian homes while displacing 64,000 tons of CO2 emissions. The solar project has a PPA in place with Votorantim Cimentos for the supply of 100 MW of solar energy for 15 years. “We are committed to being the bank of climate transition with and for our clients, and the financing of the Luiz Carlos photovoltaic complex is an example of how we have been working on this agenda,” noted Marcelo Girão Carneiro, Head of Project Finance at Itaú BBA. #cleanenergy
