Leveraging Its Extensive Experience in Building Transmission Lines, SKIC Brazil Is Ready to Capitalize on Promising Opportunities in This Sector, Starting with Auctions for Energy Transmission Infrastructure Construction.

The sector currently faces a significant deficit in its energy transmission infrastructure, especially concerning the wind and solar power plants currently under construction. The expectation is that this deficiency will persist until 2030. Consequently, four auctions are planned for the acquisition of new energy transmission lines that connect these wind farms to the National Interconnected System (SIN).

These auctions, scheduled for June, July, October, and December, have attracted significant market interest due to the importance of transmission infrastructure and the investment opportunities it presents, with EPE estimating an investment of around R$ 50 billion. SKIC Brazil is among those anticipating a positive impact on its operations, particularly in the areas of engineering and construction.

What the Company Says About the Expansion of Energy Transmission Networks

As the Brazilian subsidiary of Sigdo Koppers Ingeniería y Construcción, one of the largest engineering and construction companies in Latin America, SKIC began its operations in Brazil in 2016, installing the first transmission line project in the country, and since then, more than 2,000 kilometers of lines have been built.
