Calculating the readjustment indexes, the Agency considers the cost variation the company had incurred during the reference period.The calculation formula includes typical distribution activity costs, plus IGP-M and the X Factor*, and other costs that do not necessarily accompany the inflation index, such as energy purchased from generators, transmission charges and sector charges.

Application of the annual readjustment and the tariff review is projected in the permission contracts signed between the cooperatives and the Federal Government, through ANEEL.The indexes ratified by the Agency are the limits to be practiced by the cooperatives.Read more about the tariff updating process at www.aneel.gov.br, in Consumer Space, Tariffs – Final Consumers.

For more information about the tariff readjustment processes, consult the ANEEL website, consumer profile page, in the "questions and answers about electricity distributor tariffs” handout.(DB)
