Innovation for sustainability

Innovation represents a long-term vision for Eneva, the search for continuity in the business, promoting resilience of the company in the marketplace. To achieve this, we have invested in research and development of more efficient and cleaner technologies aimed at reducing and capturing CO2 emissions, that include anything from the reuse of ashes and a more efficient usage of water, to the storage of energy and distributed production.

Eneva has diversified its business plan, broadening its portfolio with renewable sources of energy production, and expects to develop, over the next few years, a technological platform that will allow the sourcing of solar energy, expanding operations beyond merely the plant in Tauá, Ceará.

Eneva works to be a reference in innovation in the Brazilian energy market and intends to achieve this recognition through the use of cutting edge technologies in its operations. The focus is not on immediate projects, but on those capable of contributing to a more promising future for the sector as a whole.

Transition of the Brazilian energy matrix

In a country whose electrical Matrix has found it difficult to produce energy due to periodic droughts and the irregularity of renewable sources, natural gas has gained an even more valuable position. This resource is the cleanest and most economical fuel when compared to other fossil fuels, for the transition towards a new low carbon matrix. In order for this change to take place without compromising the security of the Brazilian energy system, it is vital that the current technology is able to coexist with renewable sources until they are securely settled in the market. As a transitional fuel, natural gas represents the best solution to mitigate the risks resulting from the intermittent supply, and to provide support for renewable energy.
