Background

The GNA I power station was one of five gas-fired power plants originally proposed by GNA (Gás Natural Açu) for the Port of Açu in Rio de Janeiro state; the others were known as GNA II, GNA III, GNA IV and GNA V.

The GNA I power station began commercial operations in September 2021[12], becoming Brazil's second-largest natural gas-fired power plant.[13] According to Gás Natural Açu's website, the power station is made up of three gas turbines and one vapor turbine which together generate 1.3 GW in a combined cycle.[14] The energy is connected to the SIN via a 345 kV transmission line 52 km long which connects to the Campos dos Goytacazes substation.[14]
