SAO PAULO, June 14, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/--
Atlas expands its wind portfolio by acquiring a project from Voltalia in
Brazil. This acquisition follows the recent announcement by the company of its
proposed Alpaca wind portfolio in Chile. With this acquisition, Atlas continues
to broaden its market offering to provide clients with a full suite of clean
energy solutions.
Atlas Renewable Energy, an international renewable energy generator, acquired a
wind project in the Brazilian state of Minas Gerais from the French energy
producer and provider Voltalia. The project, named Juramento, will have a
generation capacity of 378 MW and will be composed of 63 wind turbines.

Juramento is Atlas Renewable Energy's second wind project, after the company
announced the signing of a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Enel Energía
Chile last month for the development of the Alpaca wind portfolio (417 MW).
Unlike Alpaca, Juramento does not have a PPA, and is open to any off-takers
seeking renewable power in Brazil.
"With Juramento we continue to expand and diversify our product offering across
all the regions where we operate," said Luis Pita, General Manager for Atlas
Renewable Energy in Brazil. "This project is currently available for any large
energy consumer looking for a PPA to transition from conventional sources of
energy to renewable."
Juramento will generate 1,650 GWh per year, which is equivalent to benefiting
799,524 Brazilian families, preventing 123,750 tons of CO2 (est.) which could
be compared to removing 49,500 cars from the streets of Sao Paulo. The
structure of the transaction will be reviewed and finalized through Brazil's
Administrative Council of Economic Defense (CADE) in the upcoming days.
