The adjustment of the Annual Allowed Revenue (RAP)* of the electricity transmission concessionaires for the period 2011-2012 was approved today (06/28) by ANEEL’s board. The amounts should be effective as of July 1. The new RAP encompasses the adjustment of revenues from transmission facilities that make up the Basic Network and Other Transmission Facilities (DIT).
With the readjustment, the RAP for the basic network was adjusted to R$11.27 billion, while the revenue for the DIT shall be R$1.51 billion, totaling R$12.78 billion. The indices used were IGP-M or IPCA, according to the concession agreements.
These amounts include the figures relating to the extension of the Global Reversion Reserve (RGR). This charge, whose term would end on December 31, 2010, was extended to 2035 by Provisional Measure 517/2010, converted into Act 12.431/2011.
The board’s decision also provided for an installment of the adjustment, at the amount of R$ 180.19 million. The amount, which should be returned by the transmitters, mainly corresponds to the differences between the calculation of transmission charges and RAP amounts due in the period 2010-2011, PIS/COFINS equivalent, and other adjustments.
It also provides for RAP installments relating to authorized transmission facilities and auctioned projects expected to enter into commercial operation in the period 2011-2012. The amount is R$523.28 million.
The RAP is the revenue received each year by transmitters, as provided for in the concession agreements, making their facilities available to users of the electricity system. The DIT are facilities not encompassed by the Basic Network, belonging to the transmitters. They consist of lines and equipment operating at voltages lower than 230kV (kilovolts). (GL/FA)
