The power plant supplies electricity to Brazil's National Interconnected System, displacing thermal electricity sources from fossil fuels. It also contributes to environmental sustainability, to meet the growing energy demand on Rio Grande do Sul state, and to decrease external energy dependency.

The project generates electricity from a renewable source. Unlike large hydroelectric facilities, Sanatana I, a plant with an installed capacity of 14.75 MW, has virtually no environmental impact. This project uses natural resources efficiently and contributes to sustainable development in Brazil.
