Summary of Senar Paraná capacita os produtores rurais para utilizarem a energia solar com sustentabilidade

00:00:00 - 00:05:00

In the YouTube video "Senar Paraná capacita os produtores rurais para utilizar a energia solar com sustentabilidade," the speaker discusses how the Paraná state in Brazil is helping rural producers in the region save on electricity bills by implementing renewable energy systems. Producers like Marley in São José dos Pinhais and Eliane in Araucária have benefited from a government program that offers zero-interest loans for the installation of renewable energy systems in rural areas. These producers, who faced high electricity bills due to constant irrigation requirements, have seen significant reductions in their electricity costs, allowing them to make new acquisitions and increase their revenue. With the increasing adoption of renewable energy in rural areas, Paraná is now the second-largest producer of renewable energy in rural areas in Brazil, accounting for 17% of the total production. The FAEP-SENAR campaign has raised awareness and encouraged the use of renewable energy in rural properties, particularly in the western region of Paraná. As a result, farmers have been able to produce more and diversify their crops, leading to substantial income increases. For example, a dairy farmer who used to make R$200 per week from selling cheese now makes R$360 per week.

The number of rural properties equipped with renewable energy systems has increased significantly, making it seem as if one is in a city but with a closer look, one can see the fusion of the countryside with technology. Producers like Marley in São José dos Pinhais and Eliane in Araucária have benefited from a government program that allows the installation of renewable energy systems in rural areas with zero interest loans. Marley, a dairy and cheese producer, could no longer afford the monthly electricity bill of R$500, which prevented the development and growth of her property. With the implementation of a solar energy system, she was able to make new acquisitions and bring more comfort to her family. Eliane and her husband, who raise chickens and produce mangoes, also faced high electricity bills due to the constant irrigation required for their crops. After installing solar panels, they saw a significant reduction in their electricity costs from R$2,800 to R$200-$300 per month. With the increasing adoption of renewable energy in rural areas, Paraná is now the second-largest producer of renewable energy in rural areas in Brazil, accounting for 17% of the total production. The FAEP-SENAR campaign raised awareness and promoted actions to encourage the use of renewable energy in rural properties, particularly in the western region of Paraná.

The innovation has led to a substantial decrease in energy costs, enabling farmers to produce more and diversify their crops, such as morango (strawberries), and increase their revenue. For instance, a dairy farmer used to make a maximum of R 200 (two hundred reais) per week from selling cheese. Now, he makes R 360 (three hundred and sixty reais) per week. The farmer expresses his satisfaction with the improvement in his income.
