Blue Tree Park Angra dos Reis - Diesel Power Plant in Brazil

Blue Tree Park Angra dos Reis is a small-scale diesel power plant located in Angra dos Reis, Brazil. With a capacity of 2 MW, it is classified as a small power generation facility, typically used for backup or local grid support. The plant is operational and utilizes oil as its primary fuel. Brazil's power generation sector is regulated by national standards, including emission limits for SOx, NOx, and particulate matter. Diesel plants like this one are subject to environmental licensing and monitoring by state agencies. The technology is conventional internal combustion engines, which are common for small-scale and emergency power applications. The plant's location in Angra dos Reis, a coastal city in Rio de Janeiro state, places it in a region with significant tourism and industrial activity. Its small capacity suggests a role in local energy security or backup power for nearby facilities. The environmental impact is limited due to its size, but diesel combustion contributes to local air emissions.

The plant uses oil as fuel, which results in CO2, SOx, and NOx emissions. Its small capacity (2 MW) limits overall environmental impact, but proximity to populated areas may raise local air quality concerns. Brazil's regulatory framework requires compliance with emission standards and environmental licensing. Diesel engines are generally less efficient than combined-cycle gas turbines.
