According to ANEEL, MP 1212/2024 requires interested investors to sign a Term of Adhesion, provide a guarantee of faithful compliance of 5% of the estimated value of the project and that the works begin within 18 months, counting from the date of issuance of the MP. 

In compliance with the provision of the MP, the MME published, on June 6, 2024, Ordinance 79/2024, providing for the provision of guarantees and the characterization of the start of works. 

A Law 9.427 / 1996 ensures discounts of up to 50% on the transport of energy from renewable sources for entrepreneurs who had requested grants by March 2, 2022. 

Also, the project must enter into commercial operation within 48 months from the issuance of the grant. With MP 1212/2024, this period can be extended by another 36 months.
