Abstract
The article provides an anthropological analysis of the different social worlds that make up electrical energy infrastructures. Using the lens of the anthropology of infrastructures, we reflect on the role of meteorological information artifacts in the constitution of the infrastructure of the electrical energy system in Brazil. Based on fieldwork, we show how meteorological artifacts play a performative role as boundary objects in the sociomaterial dynamics of the hydropower infrastructure. The article describes how social worlds are entangled with the circulation of weather and climate knowledge in the electrical energy infrastructures, which is increasingly important in the current context of climate change.
