Eletrobras announced this Wednesday (15) the sale of its entire stake in Eletronuclear to Âmbar Energia, a company of the J&F Group, for R$535 million.
In addition to the transaction value, Âmbar committed to assuming the guarantees provided by Eletrobras in favor of Eletronuclear and the full payment of the debentures signed with the Union, which total R$2,4 billion.
Eletronuclear — controlled by the Federal Government through ENBPar (Brazilian Binational Nuclear Energy Holding Company) — is responsible for operating the Angra dos Reis Nuclear Complex, on the south coast of Rio de Janeiro.
The company operates the Angra 1 (640 MW) and Angra 2 (1.350 MW) plants, in addition to leading the Angra 3 project, which will have 1.405 MW of installed capacity. Together, the three units have a combined potential of 3.400 MW—enough energy to supply more than 10 million people.
