These lots originate from assets returned after the Ministry of Mines and Energy (MME) and MEZ reached a settlement agreement within the framework of the Federal Court of Accounts (TCU) Consensus Solutions and Conflict Prevention External Control Secretariat (SecexConsenso).

The total Annual Permitted Revenue (RAP) cap for Lots 7 to 10 is BRL 315.2 million, with an estimated total investment of BRL 1.758 billion. The auction is scheduled to take place at 2:00 PM local time at B3 headquarters in São Paulo.

In the first auction held on March 27, Lots 1 to 5 were tendered, involving an estimated investment of BRL 3.354 billion. The contracted RAP was BRL 286.2 million, representing a 50.69% discount from the BRL 580.4 million cap.

Aneel approved the auction notice on February 24. These four assets could not be offered earlier because the TCU had not yet approved the consensual termination agreement signed between the MME and MEZ. Therefore, the auction rapporteur, Director Fernando Mosna, proposed splitting the tender into two public sessions.

Details of the assets to be tendered in the second phase are as follows: Lot 7, located in São Paulo state, includes the 345 kV Norte – São Miguel underground transmission line (circuits 1 and 2), the 345 kV São Miguel – Ramon underground transmission line (circuits 1 and 2), and the 345/88 kV São Miguel Substation. This is the largest of the four lots, with an RAP cap of BRL 201.5 million and an estimated investment of BRL 1.089 billion.

Lot 8, located in Mato Grosso do Sul state, includes the 230/138 kV Iguatemi 2 substation and the 230 kV transmission line segment between SE Iguatemi 2 and the Guaíra – Dourados C1 line. This lot has an RAP cap of BRL 26.5 million and an estimated investment of BRL 150.7 million.

Lot 9, located in São Paulo state, includes the 230/88 kV Dom Pedro I substation, the 230 kV line segment between SE Dom Pedro I and the São José dos Campos – Mogi das Cruzes line, and the 88 kV line segment between SE Dom Pedro I and the Mairiporã – Jaguari C1/C2 line. This lot has an RAP cap of BRL 37.9 million and an estimated investment of BRL 224.6 million.

Lot 10, located in Mato Grosso state, includes the 500/138 kV Cuiabá Norte substation and the 500 kV line segment between SE Cuiabá Norte and the Jauru – Cuiabá C2 line. This lot has an RAP cap of BRL 49.3 million and an estimated investment of BRL 292.8 million.
