Voltalia has secured a five-year maintenance contract with COPEL Get, a subsidiary of COPEL, one of Brazil's top utilities.
The contract covers six wind clusters in Rio Grande do Norte, with a combined capacity of 940 megawatts, including Brisa Potiguar, Cutia and Bento Miguel, São Bento do Norte, Jandaíra, Aventura, and Santa Rosa Mundo Novo.
The agreement includes:
-- Preventive and corrective maintenance of collector substations, medium voltage networks and 138 and 230 kV transmission lines;
-- Local operation of interconnection facilities and spare parts management.
This deal reinforces Voltalia’s long-term partnership with COPEL, which has held a minority stake in Voltalia’s SMG wind farm (108 MW) since 2015. COPEL is also a partner in long-term power sales agreements for Voltalia’s solar plants (SSM 1 and 2), totaling 270 MW, and has acquired 187 MW of wind assets (VSM2 and VSM4) developed and operated by Voltalia.
Voltalia currently operates around 4.1 gigawatts in Rio Grande do Norte, with 1.3 gigawatts owned and 2.8 gigawatts for third parties.
