Brazil: Siemens Energy and Casa dos Ventos signed a MoU for the supply of Latin America’s first Sensformer® Advanced transformers in 2019.
As of November 2021, these digitally enabled power transformers are now in operation at the substation of the Rio do Vento wind farm expansion, digitally connected to an exclusive and secure online platform. They provide valuable real-time information and allow digital twin simulations to maximize the transformers’ health and extend their lifecycles.
Casa dos Ventos is one of the largest investors in the development of wind projects in Brazil. The company is involved in around 30 % of all active projects. Thus, the partnership between Siemens Energy and Casa dos Ventos is intended to drive development of innovative solutions to make power generation by wind energy in Brazil more efficient and cost-effective.
“Innovation through digitalization is an aspect of value creation that we are working on intensively,”
assures Lucas Araripe, Head of New Businesses at Casa dos Ventos.
