A (Aneel) is considering a possible change in the electricity flag of electricity in Brazil, which can go from green to yellow in May. This information was released by Aneel’s Director-General ,. The final decision will be made in late April, coinciding with the beginning of the dry period in the country, characterized by a significant reduction in the rains. Currently, the tariff flag is green, which means there is no extra charge on the electricity bill of consumers. However, if the yellow flag is fired, there will be an additional cost of $ 1.88 per 100 kW consumed after five consecutive months without additional tariffs.
Feitosa assured that next month, there will be no application of the red flag, which would result in even higher costs for consumers. The definition of tariff flags is influenced by factors such as the termination of the damp period and the intensity of the dry period. Aneel monitors these conditions to determine the need for rate adjustments to balance the supply and demand for electricity in the country.
