The low-income consumers with consumption less than or equal to 30 kilowatt/hour (kWh) have until (11/01) to enroll in the Single Registry for Social Programs of the Federal Government (CadÚnico) and thus ensure the maintenance of receiving the discounts set out in Social Rates for Electric Energy (TSEE). After registering, consumers should look for their electricity distributor to confirm the registration and continue to be eligible for different rates. 

Check out the schedule for completion of benefit to those who do not fit the new criteria or those who fit but are not yet in CadÚnico.
