The board of the Brazilian Electricity Regulatory Agency (ANEEL) approved today (3/26) a public hearing to obtain contributions on the proposal of the National System Operator (ONS) relating to the Risk Aversion Curve (CAR) for the period of five years.
 
The proposal under hearing aims to address Resolution 3/2013 of the National Energy Policy Council (CNPE). Besides collecting support on the CAR amount for the next five years, ANEEL decided to waive, in 2013, the demand for ordinary revision of curves as determined by the Agency’s Normative Resolution 520/2012.
 
The Risk Aversion Curve is a mechanism that sets the minimum storage level of hydropower plant reservoirs required for safe power production to the National Interconnected System. Established by Resolution 109/2002, the Management Electricity Crisis Board (GCE) acts as an indicator for possible risks of energy shortages caused by changes in the storage volume of hydropower plant reservoirs.
 
Those interested may send contributions to the hearing in the period 3/28 to 4/8 to the e-mail ap027_2013@aneel.gov.bror to the Agency’s address (SGAN, Quadra 603, Módulo I, Térreo, Protocolo Geral CEP: 70830-030), in Brasília (DF). (DB/PG)
