Northeast Fluminense Thermoelectric Plant in Macaé, Powered by Natural Gas Produced in the Campos Basin, Is Considered the Most Efficient Among Thermoelectric Plants in Operation in Brazil

The Northeast Fluminense Thermoelectric Plant in Macaé has an installed capacity of 826 MW and is regarded as the most efficient among thermoelectric plants in operation in the country and in the EDF Group portfolio.

The unit is powered by natural gas produced in the Campos Basin and has been in operation since 2004, generating energy for 2.5 million people in the State of Rio de Janeiro.

The Northeast Fluminense natural gas thermoelectric plant 2, in Macaé (RJ), will have a capacity of 1.7 GW. The largest fossil generation agent currently in operation, UTE Porto de Sergipe I, has an authorized capacity of 1.5 GW, according to ANEEL data.

One of the suppliers for the UTE will be the UPGN of Cabiúnas, which processes natural gas from the Campos and Santos basins. However, the environmental impact report (Rima) presented indicates other alternatives, such as pre-salt gas via Rota-2 or a regasification terminal for LNG at the planned Macaé Port Terminal (Tepor).

To supply UTE Northeast Fluminense 2 in Macaé, a gas pipeline will be constructed from Cabiúnas, within the same easement of the gas pipeline of UTE Nossa Senhora de Fátima, a project by BP and Eneva, whose easement is already licensed by Ibama.
