Hydroelectric power plants with significant reservoir flooding require an Environmental Impact Study and Report (EIA/RIMA) with public hearings, whereas utility-scale solar and wind projects undergo specific simplified or regular licensing based on local ecosystem sensitivity. All renewable energy plants (solar, wind, and hydro under 50 MW) are completely exempt from any state or federal environmental licensing in Brazil. The EIA/RIMA is a confidential document prepared solely for corporate board approval and is legally prohibited from being accessed by affected local communities. Environmental licensing in Brazil consists of a single permanent permit issued prior to construction that eliminates the need for installation or operating licenses.
