Highways

 

Triunfo Concebra

In 2013, Triunfo won the lot consisting of highways BR-060/153/262 – the largest highway concession in Brazil. The concession’s 1,176.5 kilometers pass through the Federal District and the states of Goiás and Minas Gerais, connecting Brasília (DF) to Betim (MG). Triunfo Concebra is responsible for investing in the recovery, maintenance and conservation of the highway throughout the stretch, in addition to offering medical and mechanical assistance to users.

 

BR-060 connects the Western end of the state of Mato Grosso do Sul to the country’s capital, constituting a regional axis between Goiânia, Anápolis and Brasília. BR-153 connects the states of Pará and Rio Grande do Sul, in addition to connecting Goiás to the Triângulo Mineiro region and the north of São Paulo state. BR-262 connects the countryside with the coast, cutting through the states of Mato Grosso, São Paulo, Minas Gerais and Espírito Santo.

 

Concebra began operations on September 5, 2014 and toll collection will start after the doubling of lanes on 10% of the stretch (64.8 kilometers), expected to be concluded in the second half of 2015. In 2014, the company completed the first stage of improvements to highway conditions, with the installation of signage, protection equipment and reflective material, among other actions.

 

 

Infrastructure

 

 

 

Triunfo Concepa

Triunfo Concepa manages 121 kilometers of the BR-290 and BR-116 highways in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. The stretch under concession includes Free Way, elected for the second consecutive year as the best federal highway in the country by Guia Quatro Rodas of the publishing house Abril. BR-290 is one of the main corridors connecting Brazil to Mercosur, particularly Uruguay and Argentina. Traffic on the stretch managed by Triunfo Concepa came to 40.2 million vehicle equivalents in 2014.

 

Infrastructure

In 2014, the Company delivered the first additional project of the fourth lane of Free Way, wich is in progress between Porto Alegre and Gravataí until 2015. This work was not included in the original agreement but the project executed by Triunfo Concepa received approval from the population and the concession granting authority. Triunfo Concepa’s concession agreement envisages the recovery, strengthening, monitoring, improvement, maintenance, conservation and operation of highways through toll collection.

  

 

Concer

Concer was a pioneer in highway management in Brazil, participating in the highway concession program launched by the Brazilian Government in 1995. It manages a 180-kilometer stretch of the two-lane BR-040 highway, which connects Juiz de Fora in Minas Gerais to the city of Rio de Janeiro, passing through nine cities. It is the main highway corridor connecting the two states, which are the second and the third largest economies in Brazil. In 2014, 31.2 million vehicles circulated through the stretch managed by Concer.

 

The 2014/2015 edition of the Guia Rodoviário 4 Rodas elected BR-040 as one of the ten best federal highways in Brazil. The concession agreement, signed in 1995, is valid for 25 years and envisages the recovery, strengthening, monitoring, improvement, maintenance, conservation, operation and exploration of the highway through toll collection. Triunfo holds 62.5% interest in Concer and the remaining 37.5% is divided among Construcap-CCPS Engenharia e Comércio S.A., CMSA Participações S.A. and CCI Concessões Ltda.

 

The New Subida da Serra (NSS) uphill lane is the main project underway at Concer. The project is for construction of a lane of approximately 20 kilometers that will replace the current Rio-Petrópolis route, a stretch of BR-040 that has been in operation in 1928. The extra lane was necessary given the highway’s winding roads and absence of shoulders and which is unable to handle the growing traffic volume. In 2014, the new Duque de Caxias toll plaza and the new accesses to Xerém (Duque de Caxias district) were completed. The most complex lot of the Nova Subida da Serra is the excavation of the largest highway tunnel in Brazil, spanning
4.6 kilometers, through simultaneous work on four excavation fronts.

 

 

Triunfo Econorte

Established in 1997 under the Highway Concession Program coordinated by the Toll Roads Department of the State of Paraná (DER/PR), Triunfo Econorte manages a 341-kilometer network of highways, divided into five stretches: BR-369, BR-153, PR-323, PR-445 and PR-090. The stretch comprises 289.8 kilometers of one-way lanes and 50.9 kilometers of two-way lanes. A total of 15.6 million vehicle equivalents passed through these in 2014.

 

Triunfo Econorte’s highway network connects 15 cities in Northern Paraná. The region is considered strategic as it covers highways that serve as the main entry and exit routes for both Paraná and São Paulo. These highways are also used as alternative routes to transport agricultural produce from the states of Mato Grosso and Mato Grosso do Sul to the ports in Southern Brazil.

 

 

Triunfo Transbrasiliana

On September 16, 2014, Triunfo signed an agreement to 100% of the shares of BR Vias Holding TBR S.A., which holds 100% of the capital stock of Transbrasiliana Concessionária de Rodovia S.A. The stretch acquired will form an important highway corridor spanning 1.84 thousand kilometers, connecting the Triunfo Concebra and Triunfo Econorte concessions.

 

 

Service companies

 

Triunfo has three companies that provide services related to the concessionaires, such as highway maintenance, mechanical assistance and towing, medical and hospital care and rescue services. Rio Bonito Serviços de Apoio Rodoviário Ltda. (Triunfo’s interest: 62.5%) provides services in the states of Minas Gerais and Rio de Janeiro. Rio Guaíba Serviços Rodoviários Ltda. (100% owned by Triunfo) operates in Rio Grande do Sul. Rio Tibagi Serviços de Operações e de Apoio Rodoviários Ltda. (100% owned by Triunfo) operates in the state of Paraná.

 

 

Context

 

The toll road concession segment has gained momentum with the resumption of bids by both the federal and state governments. According to the Brazilian Association of Highway Concessionaires (ABCR), the extension of toll roads grew 67.8% in the past ten years, reaching 16,587 kilometers operated by 54 concessionaires.

 

 

Energia

 

Triunfo Rio Canoas

 

Established in 2010, the company is responsible for building and operating the Garibaldi Hydroelectric Plant, located between the municipalities of Cerro Negro and Abdon Batista in Santa Catarina. With installed capacity of 191.9 MW, the plant generates assured energy of 727.9 GWh per year, and will be explored by Triunfo Rio Canoas until 2045, when the concession expires. Triunfo holds 100% interest in the company.   EU1   EU10

 

Seventy percent of the energy generated by Garibaldi – starting from the scheduled date of its operational start–up on January 1, 2015 – has already been sold. Since construction was completed ahead of schedule, Aneel authorized the plant’s commercial start-up in September 2013, 13 months ahead of schedule. Consequently, Rio Canoas could sell 100% of the electricity generated until the initially scheduled date.

 

 

Triunfo Rio Verde

 

Triunfo Rio Verde owns the concession for the Salto Hydroelectric Power Plant (Salto HEP), located between the municipalities of Itarumã and Caçu in Goiás. In operational since 2010, the plant has installed capacity of 116 MW and generates assured energy of 593.9 GWh per year, all of which has already been sold up to 2026. Total investment in the construction and operational start-up of the plant was around R$ 540 million.   EU1   EU10

(twenty-foot equivalent units).

 

 

Portonaus

 

Designed to operate a port terminal focused on modern logistics solutions to support industry and trade in Northern Brazil, Portonaus, a 100% Triunfo company, acquired ownership, in 2012, of the area and the rights to operate the terminal located on the left bank of the Negro River in Manaus (AM). 

 

 

Context

 

Accounting for more than 90% of the country’s exports, the Brazilian port sector consists of
37 organized ports, between sea and river ports, and another 128 private-use terminals (TUPs), according to the Ports Department of the Office of the President of Brazil (SEP/PR). In all, this system handled 929 million tons in 2014, up 4% from 2013, according to data from Brazil’s National Waterway Transportation Agency (Antaq).
