Wind is in second place in Brazil's electricity matrix

  • Posted in 18/04/2019

Wind power has surpassed the Itaipu hydroelectric plant in installed capacity, ranking second only to hydroelectricity in Brazil's energy matrix. This information is based on data from the Brazilian Wind Energy Association (ABBEólica) and the National Electric Energy Agency (Aneel).

"If we consider that wind energy had around 1 GW installed in 2011, it is a truly impressive feat to have reached this prominent place in the electricity matrix," said Elbia Gannoum, executive president of ABEEólica.
