The Director-General of ANEEL (National Electric Energy Agency), André Pepitone, will sign the approval of 12 grants for the installation of new photovoltaic plants in the Santa Luzia region, in the state of Paraíba. The information was released by federal deputy Efraim Filho (DEM-PB), coordinator of the Paraíba bench, on his social networks.
The estimated investment for the construction of the projects is R$2,4 billion in private resources, which should generate more than 28 thousand jobs. The new plants will act as independent energy producers and each will have 50 MW of installed power, totaling 600 MW across the complex.
Representatives of the Federal government, the governor of Paraíba, João Azevêdo (Citizenship), and the federal bench, as well as deputies, mayors of the region, councilors, university rectors and authorities from the local judiciary.
