Rompex at the Futura Solar Complex and Novo Horizonte Wind Farm

Rompex at the Futura Solar Complex and Novo Horizonte Wind Farm

Rompex technology, specialized in controlled rock fragmentation, was essential to the success of two of the largest renewable energy projects in Brazil: the Futura I Solar Complex and the Novo Horizonte Wind Farm, both located in the state of Bahia. Rompex ensured precision, safety, and sustainability in rock fragmentation, facilitating the installation of the infrastructure needed for clean energy generation.

Challenge at the Futura I Solar Complex

The Futura I Solar Complex, in Juazeiro, Bahia, one of the largest solar parks in the Americas, faced the challenge of preparing rocky terrain for the installation of solar panels. With over 7,000 m³ of rock to be removed and various nearby interferences, it was necessary to adopt a solution that offered high control and precision in the blasting process.

Solution Applied with Rompex

Rompex was the chosen solution for rock fragmentation at the Futura I Solar Complex. Its technology enabled the breaking of large rock blocks without damaging the surroundings, allowing the efficient and safe installation of solar panels. Furthermore, because Rompex does not require special licenses, it sped up the land preparation process, ensuring agility in the works and keeping the project on schedule. The entire operation was conducted with precision, meeting the safety and quality standards required for the project.

Fragmentation at the Novo Horizonte Wind Farm

At the Novo Horizonte Wind Farm, also in Bahia, Rompex played a key role in the rock fragmentation process. With an installed capacity of 423 MW, the project required a blasting solution that would allow for the installation of wind turbines without compromising nearby infrastructure. Rompex was successfully used throughout the operation, ensuring speed, efficiency, low environmental impact, and preserving the integrity of existing structures.

Results of Using Rompex in Controlled Blasting

The use of Rompex in the Futura I Solar Complex and the Novo Horizonte Wind Farm demonstrated the effectiveness of the technology in large-scale projects. The blasting operations were carried out with agility, precision, and safety, contributing to the completion of the projects within the established deadlines. Rompex reinforced its leading role in enabling sustainable initiatives focused on solar and wind energy, helping to shape Brazil's energy future.

Rompex: Rock Fragmentation Solutions for Renewable Energy

Rompex remains a reference in the field of rock fragmentation and controlled blasting, supporting renewable energy projects across Brazil. Whether in solar parks, wind farms, or other major infrastructure works, Rompex technology delivers efficiency, precision, and sustainability in every type of rock fragmentation project.
