Vale has entered into a 23-year energy agreement with Casa dos Ventos for the Folha Larga Sul wind farm, located in Campo Formoso, Bahia. This facility boasts an installed capacity of 151.2 MW. This collaboration is in line with Vale's strategic objective to source 100% of its energy from renewable sources.


Anglo American has partnered with us at the Rio do Vento Wind Complex, securing 95 MWm of energy for 20 years. This supply covers approximately 30% of the energy needs for the company's operations in Brazil, eliminating around 430,000 tons of CO2 emissions each year.


Braskem will have a wind energy source from our Rio do Vento complex for 20 years. With this partnership, together we will avoid the emission of 700 thousand tons of CO₂ into the atmosphere, contributing to Braskem's goal of becoming a carbon neutral company by 2050.

We have signed an agreement with Ypê, a 100% Brazilian company and leader in the hygiene and cleaning segments in the country, to supply renewable energy from the Rio do Vento Wind Complex. The contract is worth about R$250 million, with a duration of 15 years.

Agreement positions Ypê as a self-producer of remote energy, with electricity supplied by the Rio do Vento Wind Complex, one of the largest in the world.São Paulo, February 2023 – Ypê, a 100% Brazilian company and leader in important categories in the hygiene and cleaning segment in the country, entered into a partnership with Casa dos Ventos - protagonist of the energy transition and Brazilian leader in renewable generation -, through a contract worth approximately R$250 million in the remote self-production of renewable energy. Electricity will be supplied by the Rio do Vento Wind Complex, located in Rio Grande do Norte, with 1,038 MW of installed capacity, enough energy to avoid the emission of approximately 2 million tons of CO2 per year into the atmosphere. The partnership, lasting until 2039, positions Ypê as a shareholder in the venture and represents the brand as a self-producer of remote energy. In this model, energy generation and consumption occur in different locations in which all energy is sent to the electrical grid to be transported for consumption, from a distribution or transmission structure of the SIN (National Interconnected System). “We are taking an important step towards the self-production of renewable energy, supplying approximately 40% of our electricity consumption. The action helps us advance this agenda of reducing the impact on the environment and ensuring energy security, in line with our mission of contributing to the construction of an increasingly better world”, says Gustavo de Souza, Director of Research, Development and Ypê Sustainability.Self-production of renewable energy has established itself as the most efficient model to enable the energy transition of large companies, as it guarantees, in addition to decarbonization, predictability and cost savings. “This partnership is another step towards reducing Brazil’s CO2 emissions, which also makes it possible to make even more sustainable products available to consumers. Furthermore, it gives Ypê a leading role in managing its energy and boosts the journey towards neutralizing emissions from the company’s activities”, explains Lucas Araripe, executive director of Casa dos Ventos.

Acordo posiciona a Ypê como autoprodutora de energia remota, com eletricidade fornecida pelo Complexo Eólico Rio do Vento, um dos maiores do mundo.São Paulo, fevereiro de 2023 – Ypê, empresa 100% brasileira e líder em importantes categorias do segmento de higiene e limpeza no país, celebrou parceria com a Casa dos Ventos - protagonista da transição energética e líder brasileira em geração renovável -, por meio de um contrato no valor de aproximadamente R$ 250 milhões na autoprodução remota de energia renovável. A eletricidade será fornecida pelo Complexo Eólico Rio do Vento, localizado no Rio Grande do Norte, com 1.038 MW de capacidade instalada, energia suficiente para evitar a emissão de aproximadamente 2 milhões de toneladas de CO2 por ano na atmosfera. A parceria, com duração até 2039, posiciona a Ypê como acionista do empreendimento e figura a marca como autoprodutora de energia remota. Nesse modelo, a geração e consumo de energia ocorrem em locais diferentes na qual toda energia é enviada para rede elétrica para ser transportada para o consumo, a partir de uma estrutura de distribuição ou transmissão do SIN (Sistema Interligado Nacional). “Estamos dando um importante passo para a autoprodução de energia renovável, suprindo aproximadamente 40% do nosso consumo de eletricidade. A ação nos ajuda a avançar nessa agenda de reduzir o impacto ao meio ambiente e a garantir segurança energética, em linha com a nossa missão de contribuir para a construção de um mundo cada vez melhor”, diz Gustavo de Souza, Diretor de Pesquisa, Desenvolvimento e Sustentabilidade da Ypê.A autoprodução de energia renovável vem se firmando como o modelo mais eficiente para viabilizar a transição energética de grandes empresas, pois garante, além da descarbonização, previsibilidade e economia de custos. “Essa parceria é mais um passo em direção à redução de emissões de CO2 do Brasil, e que permite viabilizar, inclusive, produtos ainda mais sustentáveis para os consumidores. Além disso, confere o protagonismo da Ypê na gestão da sua energia e impulsiona a jornada da neutralização de emissões das atividades da empresa”, explica Lucas Araripe, diretor-executivo da Casa dos Ventos.
