Brazil advances major infrastructure concessions in transport and energy
Brazil is advancing several major infrastructure initiatives across the transport and energy sectors. In Mato Grosso, the Consórcio Rota Multimodal, led by CS Infra (80%), won a 30-year concession for 634 kilometers of strategic highways. The project, which includes roads MT-020, MT-140, MT-225, MT-244, and MT-251, requires annual investments of approximately R$ 93 million for maintenance and the implementation of a ‘free-flow’ electronic toll system.
In the energy sector, Aneel has approved the bidding notice for a transmission auction set for October 30. The auction involves eight lots with an estimated investment of R$ 8.9 billion, aiming to construct or extend 1,866 kilometers of new transmission lines across seven Brazilian states.
Additionally, the Brazilian Ministry of Transport plans to initiate a public call for railway authorization programs in December. This model allows for 100% private operation, with the first project focusing on the 733 km Minas-Rio corridor. Meanwhile, in Angola, the government is preparing a concession program for maritime cabotage terminals to improve port access and reduce logistics costs through private management.
