Huawei is to supply batteries to Aggreko for a project in Brazil, creating the country's largest energy storage system to date, matched with solar plants and microgrids, across the Amazon.

The new system will allow 119MWh of capacity across 24 locations, with the use of storage and solar adding to Aggreko's thermal generation plants to build a more resilient energy system with lower carbon emissions.

Becoming operational in 2028, the largest microgrid initiative currently in the Americas, will deliver electricity to disparate communities and cities and is a major milestone for the country as it seeks renewable pathways. The project also provides Chinese-owned Huawei with a foothold in the country as it seeks to expand into new markets.

This project, building on other 2026 initiatives, demonstrates a major push towards renewable energy in Brazil.
