CPFL to bid for new generation projects in 2005
Bnamericas Published: Tuesday, January 11, 2005
Brazilian power group CPFL Energia is expected to bid for new generation projects in upcoming tenders the government hopes to hold even as the group continues to build 2,800MW in hydroelectric plants, mines and energy minister Dilma Rousseff said Tuesday. "The group's president has told me of his interest in bidding for new projects this year," she said. The government plans to hold at least one auction for build and operating licenses for new hydroelectric generation projects over 30MW. The first tender is scheduled for the first half and is expected to include 17 projects with total capacity of 2,800MW. The second is expected at year-end. Rousseff was speaking at the ceremony marking the official start of the first 65MW turbine of the 130MW Monte Claro hydroelectric plant in southern Brazil. The startup of the second 65MW turbine is scheduled for February. Monte Claro is part of the Ceran complex, which includes the 130MW Castro Alves and the 100MW 14 de Julho projects that are expected to start operations in February and August 2007. CPFL has a 65% stake in the Ceran complex, Rio Grande do Sul state-based power distributor CEEE has a 30% share and Brazilian engineering firm Engevix has 5%.
