China’s Ming Yang Smart Energy has completed the commissioning of its first wind turbine in Brazil, delivering an initial supply of clean electricity to the grid and marking a strategic milestone in the company’s international expansion.
The turbine, a MySE 6.25-172 model, was installed at a wind power project in the northeastern state of Rio Grande do Norte. The site is operated by Brazilian utility Copel (Companhia Paranaense de Energia), which manages a diversified energy portfolio including hydro, solar, and wind assets across the country.
Ming Yang said the successful grid connection follows a detailed technical and commercial assessment conducted by Copel, and underscores the competitiveness of its technology in emerging markets.
“This first grid connection in Brazil is more than a technical achievement,” the company said in a statement. “It symbolises trust, partnership, and our commitment to advancing Brazil’s clean energy future.”
The MySE 6.25-172 turbine is designed for high performance, grid compliance, and cost efficiency in diverse environmental and market conditions, according to the company. The pilot project also serves as a reference for Ming Yang’s full-service capabilities, including engineering, logistics, installation, commissioning, and future operations and maintenance (O&M) support.
The development marks Ming Yang’s first operational footprint in South America as the region continues to expand its renewable energy capacity to meet growing demand and sustainability targets.
