Delta do Parnaíba Wind Power Plant Complex CDM Project Activity

The primary objective of the Wind Power Plants considered in this CDM Project Activity is to help meet Brazil’s rising demand for energy due to economic growth and to improve the supply of electricity, while contributing to environmental, social and economic sustainability by increasing the share of renewable energy consumption for Brazil (and for the region of Latin America and the Caribbean). The proposed project activity consists of a wind power complex comprising three Wind Power Plants (WWPs) summing 70MW of installed capacity, as follows: Delta do Parnaíba WPP (30MW), Porto das Barcas WPP (20MW) and Porto Salgado WPP (20MW). These three plants became operational in July 2014 and are all located in the Parnaíba municipality, Piauí state, northeastern region of Brazil.
