The government of Goiás inaugurated, last Friday (06), the photovoltaic plant of Ceasa (Supply Center) in the state of Goiás.
The project, which received an investment of R$33,5 million via CelgPar (Cia Celg de Participações), should generate annual savings of R$3,4 million for public coffers.
During the event, Caiado highlighted the relevance of the project and highlighted that it is the first Ceasa in Brazil to use solar energy.
“This structure will generate enough energy not only to supply Ceasa, but also other units in the state of Goiás. It is a huge saving and a milestone for sustainable energy production in Brazil,” he said.
The plant is already in operation and will produce energy to supply Ceasa and other state agencies. The capacity of the structure is equivalent to the consumption of more than three thousand average-standard homes.
For Ceasa president Manoel de Castro, the financial impact is significant. “In five months, we have already saved more than R$1 million. This gives us room to invest in improvements,” he said.
The project is part of the Energy Efficiency Program of the Government of Goiás, coordinated by the SGG (General Secretariat of Government). The land was provided through an agreement with CelgPar, which also leads other similar initiatives in the state.
According to Fernando Navarrete, president of CelgPar, three more photovoltaic plants are in the completion phase: one in Anápolis, at the State University of Goiás; another in Cachoeira Dourada, which will serve schools and buildings of Seduc (Secretariat of Education); and a third in Terezópolis de Goiás, aimed at the private market in a PPP (public-private) partnership.
Adriano da Rocha Lima, Secretary General of the Government, stated that Goiás is consolidating itself as a reference in the energy transition. He highlighted that the state strategy includes photovoltaic, hydroelectric, biogas and biomethane sources, reinforcing the commitment to sustainability and energy efficiency.
