Omnia, a Brazil-based data-centre developer backed by Pátria Investimentos, signs an approximately $2 billion 20-year energy-supply agreement with Casa dos Ventos, Brazil’s largest independent renewable-power generator. The contract is designed to secure electricity for a 200 MW data-centre campus Omnia is building at the Pecém port complex in Ceará state. The facility is described as the first ByteDance data-centre in Latin America and is intended to support operations for TikTok, whose parent company is ByteDance. Multiple reports say the power agreement provides long-term renewable energy underwriting for the campus. The deal links Omnia’s planned generation of data-centre demand with Casa dos Ventos’ renewable supply capacity, positioning the Pecém site to operate on contracted clean electricity over the term of the arrangement. The announcements also frame the agreement as a major move in the region’s data-centre buildout, with the size of the power contract reflecting the scale of the planned 200 MW campus.
