28 The logistics of building the Teles Pires hydroelectric plant and forming the management team in a remote part of northern Brazil are a major challenge, overcome with innovation Encountering Brazil written by Rodrigo Vilar photos by Geraldo Pestalozzi 28 informa
In Salvador, Bahia, the work day began at dawn for the Odebrecht Informa team reporting on the magazine’s first feature story about the construction of the Teles Pires Hydroelectric Plant, on the border of the Brazilian states of Mato Grosso and Pará. Our journey started with a flight to Cuiabá with a stop in Brasilia. After arriving in the state capital of Mato Grosso, we traveled for another hour and a half on a smaller plane to the town of Alta Floresta. There, we were met by a car the project’s management team had sent to take us on the final 52 km stretch, half of it on dirt roads, and we finally reached Paranaíta, a town of 7,000 that now houses the administrative base for the project. It was late afternoon by the time we arrived at the head office, and during our first conversation, the officer Responsible for Communication for the project, Ana Paula Silvestre, advised us: “Tomorrow we have to travel over 95 km, about two and a half hours by dirt road, to reach the construction site.” The long trek to the jobsite is just one of many challenges of carrying out a project for the Federal Government’s Growth Acceleration Program (PAC), a hydro with an installed capacity of 1,820 MW (megawatts) whose first generator unit will go online by 2014. The winner of the power generation auction held by the National Electrical Energy Agency (ANEEL) in December 2010, Companhia Hidrelétrica Teles Pires S/A, a Special Purpose Company formed by Neoenergia (50.1%), Eletrobras Furnas (24.5 %), Eletrobras Eletrosul (24.5%) and Odebrecht Energia (0.9%), is responsible for building and operating the plant. Working under an EPC (engineering, procurement and construction and installation) contract, Odebrecht is the company in charge of civil construction and installation for the project, which will create 6,000 direct job opportunities. informa 29
