The auction aims to boost Brazil's grid reliability by integrating energy storage for wind and solar power. The auction, to take place in June 2025, will include 300MW energy capacity. . Changes to Brazil's first capacity reserve auction of 2025 could undermine the expansion of the procurement regime to include battery energy storage systems (BESS) in the second exercise of the year, according to Markus Vlasits, chairman of Brazil's energy storage trade body. Initially postponed from June to the second half of 2025, and with a date not yet set, it is looking increasingly likely that it will be carried out in 2026. The announcement marks the first time Brazil. . While Brazil is making progress in customer-side, “behind-the-meter” and off-grid battery solutions – with more than 700 MWh – it still lacks guidelines for a planned gigawatt-scale national auction. While 2025 growth is projected to be modest (19.
