JAS Energy Solutions is a dedicated vertical business unit within JAS Worldwide, Inc. consisting of a team of proven energy industry experts whose goal is to provide “end to end” logistics solutions to the oil and gas upstream and renewable energy sector. Our core team operate from key strategic locations where the industry supply chain can be fully supported.
JAS Energy Solutions performs both multi-modal logistics and trade compliance solutions to energy organizations and the service and support sector during the exploration, construction, production, and decommissioning phases of oil and gas development.
JAS takes pride in making a difference for our customers. Therefore, when a customer reached out to our team needing to move photovoltaic modules for aircraft the JAS Energy Solutions team in Brazil created a customized solution for this unique shipment.
Photovoltaic modules provide a sustainable energy source for powering aircraft. The team, with the support of the JAS Logistics Agent in Fortaleza, began moving the modules in November 2022 and has since cleared over half of the shipment.
In total, there will be 57 shipments (615 containers), totaling 10,421 pallets of solar panels destined for new solar plants in the state of Ceará.
Brazil added more than 9 GW of solar power in 2022, which is the best year in the history of the sector, with a growth of more than 80% compared to 2021. Today, Ceará is the second largest energy producer in Brazil.

In 2025, the holiday will run from October 1–8, and during this time, most factories, government offices, and many businesses will close or operate at reduced capacity.
