Harnessing Renewable Energy in the Brazilian Midwest: A Small Hydropower Project

Invest in a sustainable future with this run-of-river Small Hydropower Plant (SHP) located in the municipality of Nova Marilândia, Mato Grosso, in the heart of Brazil’s agricultural region. With an installed capacity of 10.656 MW, this project utilizes two Francis turbines with horizontal axes and two generator units to generate an average of 61,583 MWh of clean electricity annually. Seamlessly integrated with the Brazilian National Interconnected System, this SHP provides a reliable source of renewable energy.

Environmental Stewardship and Emissions Reduction

This project actively contributes to mitigating climate change by displacing electricity generation from fossil fuel sources. By choosing this offset, you’re directly supporting a reduction of approximately 17,183 tCO2 emissions per year. Furthermore, the project incorporates comprehensive social and environmental programs, ensuring the preservation of soil and water quality in the surrounding area through ongoing monitoring and data collection.

Sustainable Development Goals

• Affordable and Clean Energy (SDG 7): Increases access to reliable and sustainable energy sources.
• Climate Action (SDG 13): Reduces greenhouse gas emissions and mitigates climate change.
