ONS reduces rainfall projection in hydroelectric plants, but Southeast remains above average

The National Electric System Operator (ONS) slightly reduced the rainfall forecast for the hydroelectric power stations in the Southeast and Midwest in November, but still considers that rainfall in these regions will be above average, good news for the country, which deals with the water crisis.

Rainfall in the Southeast/Midwest, where the largest hydroelectric plants are located, is now estimated at 104% of the historical average in November, compared to 106% in the previous week’s report.

The ONS also reduced the expectation of precipitation in the Northeast, pointing to volumes at 66% of the historical average in November, compared to 76% in the previous week’s forecast.

For the South, the projection was also reduced to 58% of the historical average in November, compared to 64% in the previous week’s report.

With regard to the energy load, the ONS started to see an increase of 1.1% in Brazil in November, versus an increase of 1.4% in last week’s estimate.
