Inflow and storage forecast
The rains continue to punish Rio Grande do Sul, leaving thousands of people without electricity. According to the ONS, the forecast of ENA (Affluent Natural Energy) for the South region is 226% of the historical average in May.
“ONS, in coordination with agents, has been monitoring the impacts of rain in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, aiming to maintain the operation of the YES safe and guarantee the fulfillment of cargo demands in the region”, the agency communicated through a bulletin.
For the other submarkets, expected ENAs of 109% in the North; 65% in the Southeast/Central-West; and 43% in the Northeast.
