AI-generated summary
The Luz para Todos program in Amazonas had been paralyzed since 2024 and was resumed by Âmbar Energia in 2026.
Over the next six months, Âmbar Energia will bring energy to another 300 homes in the municipality, with an investment of around R$15 million.
Work began in the Murirú community, where technical teams installed the first photovoltaic panels. The system generates and stores energy in the home, which allows families to use household appliances and gain more comfort in their daily lives.
"Energy is a social transformation. No community develops without infrastructure, and electrical energy is essential for this", says Marney Antunes, Director of Operations at Âmbar Energia.
For residents, change appears in the small things. Farmer Josiane Alves da Silva celebrates what is now possible at home: “We never had cold water, but now we will.” Housewife Andreia Mota was also moved: “We couldn’t even imagine this blessing in our lives, which is Light for All”.
In addition to Anori, another 17 municipalities will receive individual solar systems. The initiative is part of the resumption of Luz para Todos in Amazonas, a federal government program that had been paralyzed since 2024 and has resumed progress with Âmbar Energia, responsible for execution in the state since it took over the energy distribution concession in May 2026.
The program has two service fronts. The first is the conventional network, which will provide 11,517 connections to 54 municipalities, with an investment of R$423.8 million. The second is individual solar energy systems, intended for communities where grid extension is not viable. On this front, there will be 7,258 connections in 18 municipalities, with an investment of R$362 million.
