The government of Brazil's Rio Grande do Norte state has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Maturati Participacoes SA to develop a green hydrogen production initiative that will be linked to a 1,043.5 MW wind and solar hybrid complex to be built in the state.
The Morro Pintado hybrid complex, located in the Areia Branca municipality, will consist of a 231 MW wind park and an 812.5 MW solar plant. The project, which is expected to be operational by the beginning of 2026, will require an investment of US$900 million.
With the MoU, the Morro Pintado hybrid complex will ensure a safe and viable supply of renewable energy for the state's Porto-Industria Verde facility's green hydrogen plant. The green hydrogen plant will be capable of generating 52,000 tonnes of green hydrogen and derivatives annually, including ammonia and green urea.
