The Approved Solar Energy Projects In The State Of Ceará

In Ceará, the approved projects were: Bom Jardim I and III, from Qair Brasil. Together, the projects in Ceará have a power output of 96.2 MW. Qair operates in several countries including Brazil (headquartered in Fortaleza), France, Iceland, Italy, Morocco, Vietnam, among others.

The projects in the state also sold energy at the highest price approved by LEN A-5 2021, with a price of R$ 168 /MWh. However, only five distributors contracted energy in the auction, which had nearly 1,700 projects. The list includes Celpa, Cemar, CPFL Jaguari, CPFL Paulista, and Light.

In The Northeast Region, Several Projects Will Receive Investments

In addition to the projects in Ceará, the Northeast confirmed the hiring of energy from 11 other units, all from wind sources. There are 5 in Bahia (Morro 1 and 2, and V. De Santa Luzia 11, 12, and 13); 5 in Rio Grande do Norte (V. de São Rafael 1 to 5); and 1 in Pernambuco (Serra das Vacas B).

According to Jurandir Picanço, Energy Consultant at Fiec (Federation of Industries of the State of Ceará) and President of the Sectoral Chamber of Renewable Energies of Ceará, the last auction by Aneel was very positive for Ceará. He stated that, in addition to the approved projects, the state will also benefit from wind sources, as it has large companies producing blades and wind turbines installed. He cited the cases of the Danish company Vestas and the Ceará-based Aeris Energy.

In total, the enterprises, which must start supplying energy to the country from 2026, will require R$ 3 billion in investments. According to Aneel, the auction will provide savings of R$ 1.3 billion for consumers.

In this auction, the Energy Research Company (EPE) registered 1,694 energy projects, totaling an offer of 93,859 megawatts (MW), with supply starting in 2026. The deadlines vary according to the source. Contracts by quantity will last 25 years for hydropower projects and 15 years for wind and solar energy projects. The availability-based contracts will apply to thermoelectric plants, with a supply period of 20 years.
