en.Wedoany.com Reported - Sertão Brasil Energia Solar has abandoned the construction of the Sertão Solar Barreiras photovoltaic complex, originally planned for the interior of Bahia state.

The Brazilian National Electric Energy Agency (ANEEL) issued an order on Friday (26th) in the Official Gazette of the Federal Government (DOU) revoking the permits for the Sertão Solar Barreiras VII to XXX photovoltaic power plants under this complex. These projects have a combined installed capacity of 650 megawatts and have no contracts in either the regulated or free electricity markets. Although commercial operation was originally scheduled to start in September 2027, construction of the complex has not yet begun.

According to company partner Renato Figueroa Garcia, when the permits were granted, it was planned to connect to the basic grid via the Barreiras II Substation (Subestação Barreiras II) and share the infrastructure planned for other plants within the same complex. However, this alternative was not realized. "Today, there is no feasible expectation for grid connection until at least 2031. Apart from market factors, this situation makes the construction of the plants technically unfeasible," the executive stated in a letter submitted to ANEEL. The lack of an alternative transmission system connection was the main factor in the company's request to revoke the permits for the Bahia project.
