Resumo: Since the late 1990s, the Brazilian electric power industry has been undergoing significant structural changes, the main objective being to increase competition and attract private investment. Due to this, the National Electric Energy Agency has offered a large number of investment opportunities through auctions of the right to build and operate power plants (mostly hydroelectric) and transmission lines, including small hydroelectric plants.In this article we propose a valuation model for a power generation plant under uncertainty and with the flexibility to choose the optimal power purchase agreement using the real options approach, and then apply this model to the case of a small hydroelectric plant. The results indicate that the flexible project has a value significantly greater than that obtained through traditional discounted cash flow methods.

Em função disso, a Agência Nacional de Energia Elétrica (ANEEL) tem oferecido uma multiplicidade de oportunidades de investimentos, principalmente através de leilões de unidades geradoras de energia (em sua maioria hidrelétricas), de linhas de transmissão e incentivos ao investimento em Pequenas Centrais Hidrelétricas (PCH). Neste artigo, propomos um modelo de avaliação de uma unidade de geração de energia em condições de incerteza, incorporando a flexibilidade de escolha do mecanismo de venda da energia gerada através da metodologia das Opções Reais, e aplicamos este modelo ao caso de uma PCH. Os resultados indicam que o projeto flexível tem um valor significativamente maior do que o valor obtido através da análise de fluxo de caixa tradicional.FUCAPE Business Shool2008-05-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-reviewed ArticleArtigo revisado pelos paresapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttp://www.bbronline.com.br/index.php/bbr/article/view/44210.15728/bbr.2008.5.2.2Brazilian Business Review; Vol. 5 No. 2 (2008): May to August 2008; 103-120Brazilian Business Review; v. 5 n. 2 (2008): Maio a Agosto de 2008; 103-1201808-23861807-734Xreponame:BBR.
