New Energy Auction A-5 guarantees investments of R$ 2.9 billion for 22 plants

The National Electric Energy Agency (Aneel) and the Electric Energy Commercialization Chamber (CCEE) concluded this Friday (10/14) the Generation Auction No. 4/2022, also known as the A-5 New Energy Auction. The event attracted investments of around R$ 2.954 billion. The funds will enable the works of 22 plants, which add up to 557,499 megawatts (MW) of power and will supply electricity to meet the demand of the distributors market as of January 1, 2027.

Contracts were negotiated for hydro, wind, solar and thermal generation that use biomass and solid waste as fuel. The 22 plants will be located in nine states: Bahia, Goiás, Minas Gerais, Mato Grosso, Paraíba, Paraná, Rio Grande do Norte, Santa Catarina and São Paulo. The average discount of the negotiations was 26.38%, reaching 40.06% for biomass thermoelectric plants and 38.78% for photovoltaic solar plants. The duration of the contracts will be up to 20 years, depending on the type of source. Since the contracts were closed at a price below the nominal value, the savings obtained for the future electricity tariff for final consumers was R$ 2.357 billion.

“The auction was very successful, meeting 100% of the demand presented by the energy distributors”, evaluated the executive manager of Aneel's Executive Auction Department, André Patrus. On the buyer side, two distributors presented demand to acquire the energy offered by the participating plants: Equatorial Energia Pará (Celpa) and Cemig Distribuição.
