Casa dos Ventos and Vestas Partner on 828 MW Dom Inocêncio Wind Complex in Brazil

Casa dos Ventos and Vestas announced a new stage in their business partnership for renewable projects in Brazil, with the 828 MW order for the Dom Inocêncio wind complex. The project is located in the south-central region of Piauí – a state recognized for its strong wind resources and one of Brazil’s fastest-growing renewable energy hubs.

The project will feature 184 V150-4.5 MW turbines, reinforcing the collaboration of more than eight years between the two companies and contributing to the sustainable expansion of Brazil’s energy matrix. Construction is expected to begin in 2026, with final commissioning scheduled for 2028. In addition to supplying the turbines and managing the construction project, Vestas will be responsible for operation and maintenance services for 25 years under an Active Output Management 5000 (AOM 5000) service agreement.

This announcement marks the first major move in Brazil’s wind market since 2023, signaling the return of large-scale investments and Casa dos Ventos’ confidence in cutting-edge technologies to support its expansion portfolio.

The project represents a total investment of over BRL 5 billion and will be one of the largest wind complexes in the country, capable of generating enough energy to power approximately 2 million homes. It will significantly strengthen Brazil’s energy security, increase the share of renewables in the energy mix, support the state’s socio-economic development, and stimulate the entire wind energy value chain through technical services, engineering, innovation, and professional training. Additionally, the project is expected to create over 8,500 direct and indirect jobs during construction and operation, boost local supply chains, and bring direct and indirect benefits to the region.

“Through our partnership with Vestas, we are bringing solutions that deliver the reliability and performance required for a project of this magnitude. This new agreement is yet another demonstration of our commitment to supporting the expansion of Brazil’s renewable energy matrix. In addition to driving the country’s energy transition, our investment will also significantly boost the socio-economic development of the region,” said Lucas Araripe, Executive Director of Casa dos Ventos.

“Receiving Casa dos Ventos’ trust once again for a project of this magnitude is a great source of pride for us. Casa dos Ventos is a key player in expanding renewable generation in Brazil. It is an honor to support a partner that shares the same ambition: to develop projects that drive the energy transition, expand access to clean energy, and foster socio-economic growth in the regions where they operate,” said Eduardo Ricotta, President of Vestas for Latin America.
