The index, still preliminary, is part of the third periodic tariff review the utility, which is usually done every four years by the regulatory agency.
The distributor provides electricity to 6.3 million consumer units in the capital and 23 cities in the state of Sao Paulo.
The rate of AES Eletropaulo is responsible for 21% of the electric bill of its customers. The remainder is composed of the cost of power generation that corresponds to 35%, 8% transmission, and tax charges and 36%.
Today (26), Aneel is listening to the society and receiving contributions from industry players at a public hearing in St. Paul. Those interested in the tariff review process can also send contributions to the agency for 11 days.
