Background

The São Judas Tadeu power station project was listed as a participant in Brazil's national energy auction in September 2022[4] but did not place a winning bid. By September 2024, with no news in two years, the plant's status was moved to shelved-inferred. Throughout 2025, no further updates emerged. In June 2026, after the project failed to be contracted in Brazil's March 2026 LRCAP energy auction, its status was moved from shelved-inferred to cancelled-inferred.[5]
