“Now, the improvement in energy generation conditions in the National Interconnected System has allowed the reduction of the additional charge charged on the bills of consumers in the captive market. However, it is important to remember that the yellow flag still represents a warning signal to the electrical system operator.“, he assesses.
“Despite the improvement in energy generation conditions in the country, forecasts for rainfall and flows in the reservoir regions for the coming months still remain below average, according to the national electricity agency. Therefore, it is only possible to talk about normality when the indicator returns to the green level, which is exempt from increases in the electricity bill.“, he adds.
