The BNDES (National Bank for Economic and Social Development) should announce this Monday (3) the approval of financing of R$ 907 million for Casa dos Ventos.

Still according to the bank, the projects form the Umari Wind Complex, in the municipalities of Monte das Gameleiras, São José do Campestre and Serra de São Bento, with a total installed capacity of 202.5 MW.

Financing is equivalent to almost 70% of the planned investments, of BRL 1.315 billion, and most of it goes to wind turbines, civil works and transmission system, with operations scheduled to start in August 2024.
