Starting this month, the Brazilians begin to notice that their bills will come a little cheaper. On Tuesday, the National Electric Energy Agency (Aneel) determined the reduction of so-called Fuel Consumption Account, r$ 15 to r$ 7.75 per megawatt hour (MWh). This means that, over the years, the invoices will be 3% greater account, but this percentage reduction will be diluted over the charges.

According to Aneel, all consumers are entitled to a discount. A hearing to be scheduled by the regulatory agency will decide whether any change in charges will be retroactive to January or will begin this month. If the option is the month of January, consumers will have discounts on bills already paid since the beginning of the year.
