The new rule makes the rules for contract extension more specific, establishing more restrictive time frames and economic conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<br>Among the main changes, the formalization of the extension by means of an addendum to be entered into by ENBPar, subject to the expressions of agreement submitted by July 7, 2025; the possibility of extension for up to twenty years from the end of the current contract, or for a shorter period at the request of the generator; and the setting of the fatal deadline until March 31, 2026 for signing the amendment, under penalty of definitive waiver of the extension. The Decree also standardizes the price based on the ceiling price of LEN A-6\/2019, corrected by the IPCA, explains the maximum values per source (R$ 285\/MWh for hydroelectric plants and R$ 189\/MWh for wind power) and authorizes, at the discretion of the generator, the reduction of the amount of energy contracted \u2013 changes after the signing of the amendment are prohibited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>In addition, it preserves the mechanisms provided for in Law No. 13,203\/2015, with the possibility of future onerous extension under the terms of Law No. 12,783\/2013. Finally, it revokes provisions of the previous decree that granted greater procedural flexibility, reinforcing the exceptional and binding nature of the extension, and determines that ENBPar publishes, within 30 days, the draft of the standard addendum and the respective operationalization schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\"><em>This content is part of the <a href=\"https:\/\/lefosse.azurewebsites.net\/en\/practice\/energy\/\" type=\"link\" id=\"https:\/\/lefosse.azurewebsites.net\/en\/practice\/energy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Energy<\/a> Bulletin for February 2026, bringing together the main regulatory and sector highlights of the period.
