📋 Tender Overview
The Ministry of Mines and Energy (MME) will extend, this Monday (10/7), the deadline for sending contributions to Public Consultation No. 175/2024 , on the draft ordinance reviewing the parameters used to guarantee power supply in the Brazilian electricity system. With the extension, the MME's objective is to receive even more proposals from different segments of civil society and the energy sector on the procedures. Participation is essential to improve sector dynamics, and the new deadline for contributions is October 18.
In December 2019, the general supply guarantee criterion applicable to studies on expanding supply and planning the operation of the interconnected electrical system and to calculating the physical guarantees of energy and power of an electrical power generation project was defined.
Based on these criteria, studies are carried out to meet the power requirements in the National Interconnected System (SIN), such as those included in the Ten-Year Energy Expansion Plan (PDE), as well as auctions to contract capacity reserves, in the form of power.
In view of the significant changes that the electrical system has been undergoing, especially in the composition of its generation matrix, in addition to the effects of severe climate events, the MME identified the relevance of reviewing the risk parameters in the planning of power supply in the National Interconnected System, that is, capacity.
On this topic, a Regulatory Impact Analysis (RIA) was carried out with the aim of reviewing the parameters associated with the risk metrics related to the general criterion of supply guarantee to assess the adequacy of the power supply in the system. The study resulted in a draft Ordinance containing the proposed changes, which were put out for public consultation for contributions from society.
