据油价网7月25日报道，巴西能源巨头Eletrobras计划在未来五年内投资近170亿美元，并急于通过并购实现增长。

据路透社援引一份证券文件报道，该公司还表示，未来五年内电力发电的投资将达到约36亿美元。

文件还指出，该公司还将考虑在低碳能源产能和输电领域寻找收购机会，总交易数量预计最多达到15笔。该国输电网络的扩张对于风能和太阳能产能的增长至关重要。

巴西的风能和太阳能产能主要集中在东北地区，为了将电力输送到南部和西南部，政府需要建设更多输电线路。

上个月，巴西政府启动了超过6000公里新输电线路的招标，并计划进行两次输电容量的招标。

由于巴西拥有丰富的水电资源，该国已经迈向一个大型可再生能源生产国。由于拥有这些资源，巴西约84%的电力发电来自可再生能源，是仅次于美国的第二大水电生产国。然而，巴西在风能、太阳能和氢能方面也有雄心壮志。

Eletrobras是拉丁美洲最大的电力公用事业公司。该国有企业在一年前由政府进行了私有化。政府发行了该公司的新股份并将其出售，稀释了自身在该公司的持股。此次股票发行筹得了63亿美元。

Brazilian Energy Major Plans To Spend $17 Billion On Mergers And Acquisitions

Brazil’s energy major Eletrobras has plans to invest close to $17 billion over the next five years and is eager to grow through mergers and acquisitions.

That’s according to a security filing, cited by Reuters, in which the Brazilian company also said that investments in electricity generation would come in at around $3.6 billion over the period.

The company will also look at acquisition opportunities in low-carbon energy capacity and transmission, the filing also said, with the total number of deals eyed at up to 15. The expansion of the country’s transmission network is essential for the growth of its wind and solar capacity.

This capacity is concentrated in the northeast of Brazil, and in order to carry the electricity to the south and southwest, the government needs more transmission lines.

Last month, it launched a tender for over 6,000 km of new transmission lines to that end and plans two more tenders for transmission capacity.

Brazil is already a large renewable energy producer thanks to its substantial hydropower resources. Thanks to these, Brazil boasts 84% of its power generation coming from renewable sources, as the country is the second-largest hydropower producer after the United States. Yet it also has ambitions in wind, solar, and hydrogen.

Eletrobras is the largest power utility in Latin America. The state-owned company was privatized a year ago by the Administration. The government issued new shares in the company and sold them, diluting its own stake in the company. The share sale generated $6.3 billion.
