No recent sanitation auction in Rondônia, no bids were submitted, signaling a concerning trend in the sector. This marks the second consecutive year with empty auctions in Brazil, after Goiás canceled a PPP for sewage services in March and Cagepa's auction in Paraíba saw minimal competition in May. The absence of interested parties raises questions about the sector's health and the effectiveness of current auction models.
Experts suggest that complex real-life conditions, such as higher losses and deteriorating assets, may be contributing factors. Additionally, negotiation difficulties over tariffs and contractual re-equilibration with regulators have dampened investor appetite for new investments. The BNDES, a government entity involved in project structuring, may need to reconsider auction models and pricing to attract more competitive bids.
The current political climate, with upcoming elections and debates on privatization, could also impact future sanitation concessions.
