In 2020, Wind Energy Should Remain at 2 to 3 GW. But in 2021, It Is Expected That Renewable Energy Auctions Will Resume and Reach 5GW

The expansion of the renewable energy market, more precisely in the wind sector this year, should only be attributed to the ACL. This year’s energy auction is only for existing A-1 energy. Therefore, the wind source should have a contracted installed capacity of 2 to 3 GW by the end of the year, maintaining the reported volume from the department over the last two years. For 2021, the expectation is for acceleration due to the resumption of new energy auctions and the normal contracting of the ACL, which may reach 5 GW.

Élbia predicts that, first of all, there will be competition between onshore and offshore wind energy generation methods, and the current level of demand in the country is low. However, in the medium and long term, this outlook and the way to unleash this energy should balance the issue of the two ways of generating energy through wind.
