4. Auction in Progress

The New Energy Auction comprises two Phases:

According to the Tender Document 03/2018, there is no Case 1 Project with

concession to be auctioned in the First Phase. The Auction starts in the Second Phase.

Firstly, the "Initial Stage" occurs, when the sellers will submit the quantity of lots for

sale. The quantity of lots related to the basic network losses and the Bid Price (for the

Quantity products) or the Fixed Revenue that will be used for verification (for Availability

Products). Next, the "Continuous Stage" in which the sellers will submit Bid Prices

associated with the quantities of lots offered in the previous step. After that, the

"Bid Ratification Step" occurs, in which the marginal project will have time to confirm

the sales of lots that complete the product demanded quantity.

IMPORTANT:

It is possible to identify the characteristics of each step through the Auction Details (O1) as

showed in Figure 27.

4.1 Second Phase

Once the auction is started, users (negotiator profile and viewer profile) will receive a notification

as shown in Figure 28.
