Brazil’s Capacity Reserve Auction for Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), first expected in 2024, moved closer to implementation in 2025 as projects progressed and auction rules were formalized.
As the projects matured over the past year, the estimated supply volume for the auction increased from approximately 2 GWh in 2024 to 18 GW by 2025.
The auction is scheduled for April 2026 and will be held under the name Long-term energy acquisition program (LRCAP), which took shape in 2025 following the launch of a public consultation on auction rules by the Ministry of Mines and Energy (MME) in November.
