Abstract
The investigation has a qualitative approach as a methodological procedure. The objective is to analyze the socioeconomic and environmental impacts of wind parks in the municipality of São José do Sabugi (PB), in the interior of Paraíba. As for the purposes, it consists of a descriptive research. As for the means, the research is characterized as bibliographical and documentary research. The municipality of São José do Sabugi-PB benefited from the collection of the Tax on Services of Any Nature (ISSQN). Income generation was mainly through land leases. Commercial activity was also affected, with the food sector being the most benefited. The forms of social participation took place through the work of the Environmental Protection Council (COPAM). The construction of roads was a positive point, but it became a problem, as vehicle traffic increased, generating the risk of accidents and changes in the daily lives of residents. During the road construction process there were impacts on the region's flora. The generation of noise and alteration of the landscape are also impacts present during the operation of wind parks in the municipality. Positive impacts are perceived in relation to economic factors, such as the collection of taxes by the municipality and land leasing. Environmental impacts were also generated that need to be mitigated, as they put both the fauna and flora of the region at risk.
Highlights
The global population increase has intensified the demand for goods and services, so it began a search for sustainable alternatives that meet the current needs of the population and at the same time does not compromise future generations (Farias, 2016), by addressing the conscious use of natural resources available on the planet, observing the economic, social and environmental dimensions, in the face of scarcity and current environmental crises.The climate crisis has included the replacement of fossil fuels with alternative energy sources and technologies that can minimize the harmful effects of global warming
The enterprise is developed by Força Eólica do Brasil (FEB), in total 45 wind turbines are to be installed through this project
The 45 wind turbines are distributed as follows: 14 wind towers are located in the rural area of the municipality of Santa Luzia, 28 wind turbines in the rural area of the municipality of São José do Sabugi, we have that in the municipality of Junco do Seridó are allocated 3 wind turbines in the rural area (Costa, 2018)
Summary
The global population increase has intensified the demand for goods and services, so it began a search for sustainable alternatives that meet the current needs of the population and at the same time does not compromise future generations (Farias, 2016), by addressing the conscious use of natural resources available on the planet, observing the economic, social and environmental dimensions, in the face of scarcity and current environmental crises.The climate crisis has included the replacement of fossil fuels with alternative energy sources and technologies that can minimize the harmful effects of global warming. The energy transition to renewable sources is the main alternative for reducing the use of fossil sources (Carvalho & Coimbra, 2018). The concern with environmental issues has become the main vector for the search for cleaner options in energy generation. Among these options, wind energy has been gaining visibility in recent decades (Simas & Pacca, 2013), by not generating greenhouse gases the wind source has become essential for the mitigation of climate change (Peri, Becker & Tal, 2020). It is necessary that other sources have greater participation and energy production than hydroelectric plants, such as wind and biomass sources, for example, because the wind and sugarcane production regime is opposite to the water regime (Lopes, 2015)
