Rio de Janeiro – State Grid Brazil Holding assumes today, April 20, the commitment made in Auction No. 01/2020 of the National Electric Energy Agency (ANEEL), held in December of last year. The company had the second best bid offered at the time, and after the first placed bidder was disqualified by ANEEL's Special Bidding Committee (CEL), SGBH was called for qualification and becomes the holder of the concession.
