Transformational improvements
encompass studies and the development
of new business models, productive
capabilities and technologies that can
drive our energy transition process.
We have two main projects underway
that foster research and advancements
in smart energy:
• Research in green hydrogen and
ammonia: we have partnered with the
Brazilian Power Sector Research Center
(Cepel) to develop a conceptual project
for an integrated plant fueled by green
hydrogen (H2V) and green ammonia. The
goal is to identify more viable ways to
produce H2V, a zero carbon and 100%
sustainable fuel obtained through the
electrolysis process, which uses water to
produce green ammonia, a sustainable
product with several applications
being studied. In 2022, we defined the
multipurpose plant model and completed
the detailed plans of the subsystems. R$
400,000 was invested in the project. For
2023 we aim to incorporate the expertise
gained in structuring a base of goals and
indicators for the next research cycle.
• Green hydrogen pilot plant at HPP
São Simão: development is ongoing of
a green hydrogen manufacturing plant
powered by a photovoltaic solar power
plant, on land and floating, to be installed
at HPP São Simão. The progress of the
initiative is directly related to research
with Cepel. In 2022, we secured the
license to roll out the pilot project from
Ibama and the National Water Agency
(ANA). We also carried out the technical
feasibility study, defined the basic plans
and analyzed the investment conditions.
R$ 300,000 was invested in the project.
Including the transformational
improvements, we invested a total of R$
700,000 in 2022.
In total, we invested around R$ 6.3 million
in research, development and innovation
projects and reinforced our overarching
goal of fostering and supporting
renewable energy initiatives and fueling a
low-carbon economy.
In 2022 we
invested roughly
R$ 6.3 million
in research,
development
and innovation
projects.View entire presentation
