en.Wedoany.com Reported - More than 60,000 residents in the municipalities of Aveiro and Porto de Moz, in the state of Pará, Brazil, have gained access to electricity through the National Interconnected System (SIN, Sistema Interligado Nacional). This is the result of the completion of new projects under the Amazon Energy Program (Programa Energias da Amazônia) of the Ministry of Mines and Energy (MME, Ministério de Minas e Energia).

In Aveiro, the Amazon Energy Program invested 56.1 million reais to build 129 kilometers of transmission lines, benefiting approximately 19,000 residents. In Porto de Moz, the investment reached 267.2 million reais, constructing 189 kilometers of 138 kV lines to enhance energy security for over 44,000 people. These two projects are part of a strategy to gradually replace fossil fuel-based power generation with electricity from the National Interconnected System, whose energy matrix is predominantly composed of renewable sources.

The Ministry of Mines and Energy stated that through these transmission infrastructure projects, the Amazon Energy Program has effectively improved the reliability of electricity supply in remote areas. Residents of Porto de Moz and Aveiro had long relied on diesel generators, which are costlier and produce higher carbon emissions. With their connection to the National Interconnected System, the stability and sustainability of electricity supply in both locations have improved. The continued advancement of the Amazon Energy Program helps expand the coverage of clean electricity in the Amazon region.
