The Municipality of Gavião issued an unfavorable opinion on the photovoltaic and wind project presented by Endesa. The local authority justified the decision with the size of the areas planned for the project.

The municipality also pointed to the accumulated pressure on the territory as a determining factor for the negative opinion. The impact of the high-voltage power lines associated with the project was also mentioned as a concern.

The article denounces an alleged "electric siege" on the villages in the region, suggesting that local populations face an excessive concentration of energy infrastructures. The position of the Municipality of Gavião reflects the growing opposition of various municipalities to renewable energy projects in inland territories.
