Chlorum Solutions, a supplier of chlorine and its derivatives, signed a 24-MW solar power purchase agreement (PPA) that will cover a significant portion of its energy needs.

The PPA was signed with Atlas Renewable Energy, an international renewable energy solutions provider.

Atlas will supply the energy from its Draco Solar Complex, which has an installed capacity of 579 MW and annual generation of 1.152 GWh. Located in Minas Gerais, Brazil, the Complex already supplies energy to companies such as V.tal, a telecommunications infrastructure solutions company, and Rede Primavera Saúde, a hospital chain.

This latest agreement moves the solar complex closer to its goal of supplying renewable energy to companies from many different sectors.

“Atlas Renewable Energy has developed the solution that best suits the reality of our operations,” said Alfredo Kerzner, president of Chlorum Solutions, in a statement. “With this partnership, Chlorum will enjoy a significant supply of renewable energy at a competitive price, in addition to maintaining our zero carbon emission energy mix – an important requirement of our environmental policy.”
