The power clearing price (PLD) should average its regulatory minimum in 2023, according to four out of five scenarios from Brazil's chamber of electric energy commercialization (CCEE).
The only scenario where the average clearing price would be higher than its R69.04/MWh ($13.43/MWh) regulatory floor would be if rainfall levels were similar to those recorded between January 2021-February 2022, when the country faced a historic drought. If so, the PLD would average R76.08/MWh in 2023.
