Brazil’s second LRCAP of 2026, held last week, contracted 501.3 MW of capacity from existing thermoelectric plants. Four diesel and fuel oil plants have been awarded contracts with deliveries starting in 2026 and 2027, while two biodiesel plants will start supplying power in 2030.
The auction, held at the Chamber of Electric Energy Commercialization (CCEE) headquarters in São Paulo, complements the tender carried out last Wednesday (March 18) which resulted in the contracting of 19 GW of capacity.
“The capacity contracted during these two days of auctions improves energy security for Brazilians. This reflects our efforts to ensure that electricity is delivered to households across Brazil in an even more reliable way,” said Minister Alexandre Silveira.
