Skyline
Skyline is a Brazilian electricity transmission platform, launched by Actis in February 2024 following the acquisition of 100% of one operational transmission line, totalling a length of 743 kilometres, from EDP Brasil (Energias do Brasil S.A.). The platform currently owns and operates two transmission line assets totalling 857km and is in the process of acquiring further assets.
The power transmission sector is of strategic importance in Brazil, where renewables power almost 45% of the country’s energy demand, as it is key to meeting this growing power demand. Most Brazilian energy generation assets, notably renewables, are situated far from the consumer base, making transmission lines essential infrastructure in facilitating access to power. In addition to these factors, the Brazilian transmission sector also makes for an attractive investment due to the country’s transparent auction process and robust and mature regulatory environment.
The momentum behind Brazil’s transmission market remains positive, with the government pushing ahead with a $10 billion auction agenda.
