The plants have 240 MW and 210 MW of installed capacity, respectively, for a combined 450 MW, and supply Brazil's interconnected grid. Amador Aguiar I has three 80 MW generating units and uses conventional reservoir operation; Amador Aguiar II has three 70 MW Kaplan turbines and uses run-of-river operation.

CCBE's core commercial model is wholesale electricity generation and sale to electricity distribution companies through ANEEL-regulated contracts, with bilateral agreements also possible; no public consumer tariff is disclosed. The source also lists CFURH financial compensation for water-resource use as a revenue stream, under which 65% goes to affected municipalities, 25% to states, and 10% to the Union. Through April 2025, CCBE had contributed approximately R$ 86.163 million to Araguari, Indianópolis, and Uberlândia.

CCBE was constituted on May 15, 2001. Aliança Geração de Energia S.A. owns 87.3684% and is itself a joint venture between Vale S.A. (55%) and Cemig GT (45%), while L.D.O.S.P.E.
