Background
In July 2019, the Jaci power plant received its environmental license and was the subject of public hearings in the city of Macaé.[8][9] The project was listed as a participant in Brazil's A-5 national energy auction in September 2021[10] but did not emerge victorious.[11] As of December 2021, it was one of several new power plants proposed for the Macaé region.[12]
Opposition
In November 2022, the Brazilian environmental group Arayara filed a public civil action against Brazil's national environmental authority IBAMA, Rio de Janeiro state environmental authority INEA and four private companies. The filing alleged that the Jaci power station, along with several other proposed power plants, would have a detrimental impact on water supply and air quality in the region, and requested that additional environmental studies be undertaken prior to further development of the power plants.[13]
