Description | In November 2015, the Brazilian company SPE Boa Vista II Energia S.A, a subsidiary of CPFL Energias Renovaveis S.A. was granted the 30-year contract to build and operate the Boa Vista Small Hydro Power Plant (26.5 MW total capacity) located at the municipality of Varginha, state of Minas Gerais (Verde River).
