The Portuguese company EDP Renewables completed the construction project for its largest wind power complex in Brazil, which has 14 parks, 138 wind turbines and has a total installed capacity of 580 megawatts (MW) and, according to estimates by the Portuguese company, could produce enough energy to supply more than 1.5 million people a year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This complex includes the Monte Verde I-VI, Boqueirao I-II and Jerusalem I-VI wind farms, which together have the capacity to produce some 3,000 gigawatt hours <\/strong>per year (GWh\/year).<\/p>\n\n\n\n The 180.6MW Jerusalem I-VI wind farm began construction in January 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For its part, Monte Verde I-VI began construction in April 2021.
