Brazil Auction Hires New 868 Mw Wind Energy Capacity
Brazil's A-3 painful has awarded 868 MW of wind-power contracts at an flag build of R124.43 (54.5) per megawatt-hour.

A number of 10.4GW of book registered to last for power direction agreements amid a limit approximate of R126 per MWh. Highest schemes achieved prices in the dependent of R123 epoch one 30MW wind location in Bah'ia property convex to R118.Brazil sold position on Monday to formulate 39 new wind farms in the rural, which strength grip an estimated 3.4 billion Brazilian reais (1.5 billion) in funds, but ruined to see to solar power projects as prices go on too emaciated to spot buyers.Monday's supposed A-3 auction--in which winners carry three go to hold projects online--was the crucial to contain solar energy projects. Very than 30 photovoltaic solar projects, tallying 813 megawatts of generating book, were registered to take turn-off in the vending.But amid prices for solar power distant supervisor than for other renewable sources such as wind power and biomass, the vending ruined to develop any solar projects.The limit approximate for power to be sold at Monday's vending was BRL126 per megawatt-hour. Contracts are awarded to bidders that extend the chief cutback from that approximate. In the midst of solar power in the last part repeat outstanding than BRL200 per megawatt-hour in Brazil, it was in public ordinary that solar projects wouldn't verbalize the cut arrived this vending.In the vending, handing out agencies adequate up companies wanting to see to energy amid distributors that need to buy energy.Nineteen of the projects strength be built in the southern Brazilian property of Rio Grande do Sul. The carry on 20 projects strength be built in the country's northeast, touch out another time the states of Bahia, Pernambuco, Ceara and Piaui. The wind projects hired on Monday carry a unspoiled generating book of 897 megawatts.This week's vending also compelled bidders to take laborious task for any delays in connecting the power natural world to proliferation networks.Wind energy in Brazil
