We will be learning the about different types of alternative energy technologies, visiting renewable energy sites and talking with industrial leaders who pioneered these technologies in Brazil. We will be immersed in the Brazilian culture while learning the language and discussing innovative alternative energy technologies. I will use this blog to send updates on what we are doing throughout our trip and post pictures of the group during outings.

This weeks site visits
This week we visited some of the renewable technologies that we have talked about in class. On Tuesday, we went to CPFL Solar Energy Research Company and Bosch, who specialize in flex engine technologies. Both were located in Campinas, a city an hour and a half North of Sao Paulo. Wednesday, we went to an International Renewable Energy Conference in Sao Paulo, where we talked with companies who are at the fore front of renewable energy technologies! Thursday, we went to Henry Borden Hydroeletric plant in Cubatao, about an hour and a half south of Sao Paulo.
