Energea, a renewable energy investment platform, announced the commissioning of the Divinópolis II solar power plant. Located at the Fazenda Córrego Sujo in Divinópolis, Minas Gerais, this 3.13-MW (DC) facility is Energea’s 24th solar asset in Brazil. An additional 16 projects are still under construction, according to the company.

The platform is open to any US citizen and offered under Regulation A of the US Securities Act.
