Brazil reports record wind power generation
Brazil has set a new record for electric power generation from wind farms as a host of new projects come online, according to the mining and energy ministry.
Wind farms dispatched 5.804GWa to the national grid on September 13, eclipsing the previous record of 5.203GWa on July 25, the ministry said in a statement.
"This is due, among other factors, to increased installed wind power capacity," the ministry said.
Brazil's installed wind capacity reached 9.327GW in August, up 2.790GW on the year-ago figure.
The government expects the wind generation park to hit 24GW by 2024.
