The Corredor do Senandes III is a key infrastructure asset in Brazil's power generation grid, located on the continent of South America. Designated as a renewable electricity generation station, the facility features an installed capacity of 27 MW. Its primary operation relies on harnessing wind energy resources to generate bulk electricity. The plant's operating entity is not publicly declared in national utility registries. The facility was officially connected to the commercial grid in 2015, since which it has maintained regular output, playing a structured role in domestic power supply security. In terms of domestic production capacity within Brazil, Corredor do Senandes III occupies the #210 position among all operational wind power plants. Its 27 MW capacity represents a 0.24% share of Brazil's total installed wind generating capacity, which currently stands at 11,309 MW. The largest operational wind installation in Brazil is the Campos Neutrais Wind Farm with an output of 583 MW, making the Corredor do Senandes III approximately 21.6 times smaller by comparison. Across all fuel types and electricity generation technologies country-wide, this facility accounts for 0.0108% of Brazil's aggregate generation capacity of 250,382 MW. Based on historical capacity factors characteristic of wind power plants (modeled at 30% for analysis), the facility's expected annual electricity generation is calculated at approximately 70,956 MWh. Applying domestic consumption statistics where an average household in Brazil consumes 3 MWh of electricity annually, this level of production is sufficient to meet the energy demands of roughly 23,652 homes. As a clean and sustainable energy project, Corredor do Senandes III contributes to the direct displacement of greenhouse gases, preventing substantial quantities of carbon dioxide from entering the atmosphere and helping Brazil advance toward its renewable energy integration targets. The physical site of the station is located at geographic coordinates -32.4127° latitude and -52.3555° longitude. Analysis of local grid infrastructure shows a density of other assets within a 50-kilometer radius. These nearby facilities include Corredor do Senandes IV (wind, 29.7 MW), Vento Aragano I (wind, 29.7 MW), REB Cassino I (wind, 22 MW), representing a cluster of localized power assets. This geographic placement is vital for reinforcing regional distribution infrastructure and minimizing transmission line losses across this sector of Brazil.
