Renewable energy infrastructure development in Rio Grande do

Overview

Energy infrastructure development in Rio Grande do Norte is progressing through both storage and transmission initiatives to support renewable energy integration.

Nine Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) projects are currently undergoing environmental licensing with the Institute of Sustainable Development and Environment (Idema). These projects aim to mitigate energy curtailment by storing surplus energy produced during low-demand periods for use during peak demand.

Simultaneously, Axia Energia is seeking up to R$ 680 million in financing from IDB Invest for the Transmission Lot 7 project. This initiative involves installing three 500 kV synchronous compensators at the Açu III and João Câmara III substations to enhance grid stability and voltage control in the Northeast region. The transmission project is expected to create approximately 2,299 jobs during its estimated 42-month construction phase.
