Transmission Concessions: 596 Tracked Worldwide
Concessio tracks 596 visible transmission concessions across 34 countries, dominated by Brazil's ANEEL auction contracts (363) and India's tariff-based competitive bidding licenses (104). Terms run long — documented end dates cluster decades out — so only 1 record in the expiring pipeline reaches end of term within 36 months. This page covers where coverage sits and the contract data behind it.

How many transmission concessions does Concessio track?
596 visible transmission concessions across 34 countries, as of August 2026. The table below shows the eight markets with the deepest visible stock; the remaining roughly 26 countries carry smaller counts each and aren't broken out individually here.
| Country | Visible transmission concessions |
|---|---|
| Brazil | 363 |
| India | 104 |
| United Kingdom | 36 |
| Peru | 30 |
| Argentina | 11 |
| China | 8 |
| Cambodia | 4 |
| Bolivia | 3 |
This is a selected-markets table, not the full 34-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 dominates with 363 visible transmission concessions — the lot-by-lot output of ANEEL's transmission auctions, each lot a standalone long-term concession — followed by India (104) under its tariff-based competitive bidding regime and the United Kingdom (36), chiefly offshore transmission license transfers. Peru (30) and Argentina (11) lead the rest. Concessio tracks what energy regulators and system authorities actually publish.
Where does near-term re-tender pressure concentrate?
It doesn't, yet: just 1 transmission record in Concessio's expiring pipeline reaches end of term within 36 months — in Argentina. That is the structural signature of the class: transmission concessions carry long terms — the ANEEL example below runs 2024 to 2054 — so documented end dates cluster decades out. 340 of the 596 visible transmission concessions carry a documented end date.
What contract and operating data sits behind the records?
| Data type | Count |
|---|---|
| Extracted contract clauses | 243 |
| Operational KPI records | 69 |
| Reaching end of term within 36 months | 1 |
| Records with a documented end date | 340 |
Transmission carries a substantial clause corpus — 243 extracted contract clauses across auction contracts and license terms — alongside 69 operational KPI records. Regulated-return economics — regulatory asset base and allowed return determinations — are tracked as a separate regulatory layer. Each clause carries a citation to the underlying document.
An example record
