[1] Located on a property the size of 1,500 soccer fields, Pirapora is made up of 11 solar farms, with an installed capacity of 321 megawatts.
With the whole operative group, at the end of the first semester of 2018, the complex hit a capacity of 400 megawatts, which can provide energy for up to 420,000 houses annually.
[1] Électricité de France holds 80% of the photovoltaic power from Pirapora, with the remaining 20% belonging to Canadian Solar, one of the leaders in the sector.
The company was responsible for the creation of around 1.2 million photovoltaic solar panels for the complex, assembled in the state of São Paulo.
The domestic assembly of the panels was a primary condition for the complex to become the first project of its kind to benefit from investments from the Brazilian Development Bank.
