The broader opening to private capital and the possibility of restructuring the service delivery model have created conditions for a wave of auctions and competitive processes aimed at concessions, PPPs and regionalization, with a declared focus on enabling investments, increasing operational efficiency and meeting universalization goals: 99% of the population served with drinking water and 90% with sewage collection and treatment by 2033.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since 2020, it is estimated that 62 competitive processes have already been carried out in sanitation, and the pipeline today projected for 2026 reinforces the perception that this pace tends to intensify.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Main sanitation auctions scheduled for 2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to public information from the National Bank for Economic and Social Development and the Investment Partnerships Program, the main projects scheduled for 2026 are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Goi\u00e1s Saneamento<br>Expected

12.14.2026<br>Modality: Concession<br>Municipalities: 214<br>Estimated investment: not identified in public sources consulted<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Together, these projects signal a portfolio of large-scale investments distributed across several regions of the country, with emphasis on state-scale operations and initiatives with a strong regionalization component.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pipeline already flagged for 2027 and 2028<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to the auctions scheduled for 2026, the public pipeline includes projects in the preparatory phase with indicative schedules for 2027 and 2028, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Municipality of Porto Alegre<br>Auction scheduled to start on 06.09.2027<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Municipalities of the Bacia do Rio Doce<br>Public Notice scheduled until June\/2027<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Municipalities in the state of Alagoas<br>Auction scheduled until December\/2027<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>32 municipalities in the state of Esp\u00edrito Santo<br>Auction scheduled until March\/2028<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These initiatives reinforce the prospect of continuity of the cycle of delegations and partnerships in sanitation beyond 2026, with a multi-year portfolio that is of interest to both strategic operators and financial investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Looking Ahead<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Careful monitoring of the structuring of these projects, including modeling (full concession, PPP, privatization), risk matrix, investment commitments, and performance targets, tends to be decisive for the decision-making of potential stakeholders and financiers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>COSRO's Infrastructure team monitors the regulatory and contractual developments of sanitation auctions on a daily basis, consolidating practical experience in the rules of the sector and in the most efficient mechanisms for the development and structuring of projects, taking into account the specific charges and particularities of each region in which it is intended to advance towards the universalization of services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Connect with us for further information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Points of Contact<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a
