Background
The Atiaia I power station participated in Brazil's September 2022 national energy auction[5] but was not selected as a winning bidder. As of April 2023 the project's owners had been requesting renewal of their preliminary license[2], but there was no sign the renewal had been granted, so the unit's status was moved to shelved-inferred. Through March and September 2025, no further news emerged.
In Brazil's March 2026 LRCAP energy auction, the project was not among the units contracted, and in June 2026 the unit's status was moved to cancelled-inferred.[6]
