Omnia, a data-centre developer backed by Pátria Investimentos, signed an approximately $2bn energy-supply agreement with Casa dos Ventos, Brazil’s largest independent renewable-power generator. The contract underwrites power for a 200 MW data-centre campus being built in the Pecém port complex in Ceará, intended to be ByteDance’s first dedicated infrastructure footprint in Latin America. The project totals about $9.8bn across three principals, with ByteDance committing $7–8bn for IT equipment and Omnia providing about $2bn for site infrastructure. Casa dos Ventos plans to invest roughly 3.5bn reais in new wind capacity dedicated to the campus. The agreement is a long-tenor offtake that anchors Casa dos Ventos’s generation pipeline, with grid connection reported as already secured.
"Omnia, the Pátria Investimentos-backed data-centre developer, has signed a roughly $2bn energy-supply agreement with Casa dos Ventos, Brazil's largest independent renewable-power generator, according to Reuters . The contract anchors the power side of a 200 MW data centre going up in the Pecém port complex in Ceará, the facility that will become ByteDance's first dedicated infrastructure footprint in Latin America."
"The energy deal is the substantive Monday detail inside a project whose architecture had been publicly outlined since November 2025 . The combined investment now sits at roughly $9.8bn across three principals. ByteDance is committing $7-8bn for IT equipment that will fill the racks. Omnia, the Pátria-controlled platform that took on the developer role after Brazilian antitrust regulator CADE approved its control of the Pecém asset in November, is providing about $2bn for site infrastructure."
"The $2bn power-supply contract announced today is the long-tenor offtake that turns Casa dos Ventos's generation pipeline into the data centre's primary energy source. The structural read is the part worth noting. The project is, on its own published numbers, the largest single-client data centre planned in Brazil, with a 300 MW power-consumption envelope underwriting a 200 MW productive load."
"Casa dos Ventos has been buying wind farms specifically to anchor the offtake , including a 350 MW asset earmarked for the campus, alongside an 828 MW order for a wind complex feeding the broader Pecém industrial zone. The grid connection for the Pecém project is, on the reporting available, already secured."
