The Agota River, which cuts the state of Parana, has gained a new source of energy, a small electrical center (SHP) Lucia Cherobim. The factory opened last Thursday (3).
The project is between the cities of Porto Amazon and the Laba, about an hour and a half from Corityba. The project, with a fixed capacity of 28 MW (MW), which can provide about 11,000 familiesHe was connected to the interconnected national system (SIN) through a transport line of more than three kilometers.
The renewable energy project was built by CPFL, a company controlled by the Chinese state network. With an investment of $ 421 million, the new factory will enhance the Brazilian electric matrix, which expands the participation of renewable sources in the country.
“CPFL is believed in the natural profession that our country enjoys renewable energy. Not by chance, 100 % of our generation ability is renewable, either by photovoltaic, PCH and biomass or wind energy. We still believe that expanding the matrix will remain through the renewed source,” says Gustavo Estrella, head of CPFL.
The opening event was attended by Deputy Ruler of Barana, Daraa Diana; The mayor of Porto Amazon, Elias Gomez da Costa; The Chinese Consul General in Sao Paulo, Yu Ping.
According to the data of the National Electric Energy Agency (ANEEL), Brazil has about 430 SPS currently operating.
With intermittent sources, such as solar energy and wind, whose generation depends on natural conditions such as the sun and wind, the energy resulting from the photovoltaic plants acquire the strength in the expansion debate of the Brazilian electrical matrix, because it is a continuous source because it contains tanks.
The opening of the plant occurs in the scenario of excessive power generation in the country. Looking at this, and The federal government has established a working group To deal with measures to deal with excess and retract the generation.

The SHP building, which started in August 2022, is more than 1,800 workers. The new energy generator contains a dam with a “free threshold” hanging, where excess water passes freely on the structure, without compote, to maintain the river’s path and ensure the preservation of animals and plants, which reduces the effects.
According to the manufacturer’s company, the structure is constantly monitored by a center that uses maintenance and safety technologies.
