Energy Generation Concessions: 3,337 Tracked Worldwide
Concessio tracks 3,337 visible energy-generation concessions across 125 countries — the widest country spread of any asset class in the platform — and only concession-structured generation qualifies: plants with a state offtaker or government-framework PPA and a defined term. Merchant plants and private corporate PPAs sit outside scope. Brazil (567) and India (464) lead. This page covers the scope line, the coverage and the data behind it.

How many energy-generation concessions does Concessio track?
3,337 visible energy-generation concessions across 125 countries, as of August 2026. The table below shows the eight markets with the deepest visible stock; the remaining roughly 117 countries carry smaller counts each and aren't broken out individually here.
| Country | Visible energy-generation concessions |
|---|---|
| Brazil | 567 |
| India | 464 |
| South Africa | 207 |
| Mexico | 147 |
| Thailand | 119 |
| Pakistan | 112 |
| Indonesia | 104 |
| Vietnam | 99 |
This is a selected-markets table, not the full 125-country breakdown, and its rows should not be added together — a summed figure would be an arithmetic guess, not a verified count.
Where is coverage deepest?
Brazil leads with 567 visible energy-generation concessions — ANEEL's auction-granted hydro and thermal contracts — followed by India (464) and South Africa (207), whose REIPPPP renewable rounds contract independent producers against a state offtaker. Mexico (147), Thailand (119), Pakistan (112), Indonesia (104) and Vietnam (99) complete the markets shown; the long tail runs through 125 countries, many via multilateral project disclosure. Concessio tracks what regulators, auction authorities and multilateral databases actually publish.
Where does near-term re-tender pressure concentrate?
178 energy-generation records in Concessio's expiring pipeline reach end of term within 36 months — Brazil shows 17, India 16 and Mexico 14. A disclosure caveat matters here: only 215 of the 3,337 visible records carry a documented contract end date, the thinnest end-date coverage of any large Concessio class. PPA and concession end dates in this class are published far less systematically than award announcements, so the documented pipeline understates the real one.
What contract and operating data sits behind the records?
| Data type | Count |
|---|---|
| Extracted contract clauses | 822 |
| Operational KPI records | 508 |
| Reaching end of term within 36 months | 178 |
| Records with a documented end date | 215 |
Energy generation carries Concessio's second-deepest clause corpus — 822 extracted contract clauses, including PPA and offtaker terms — alongside 508 operational KPI records. Each clause and KPI carries a citation to the underlying contract, gazette or regulatory document.
An example record
Palladium Solar 1, REIPPPP Bid Window 7 (South Africa). Operator: Infinity Power Holding / Pele Green Energy. Grantor: Department of Electricity and Energy, IPP Office. Term: 2026–2046. Source: South African government preferred-bidder announcement (gov.za). Every Concessio record traces to a primary government, regulatory or multilateral source in this way.
