The board of the National Energy Agency (ANEEL) decided today (04/19) to maintain current rates of Companhia Energetica do Ceara (Coelce) until the publication of definitive methodology and implementation of the third round of rate review. Coelce serves 2.8 million consumer units in 184 cities.
In last week's meeting (04/12), the Agency approved the procedures for handling provisional rates of electricity distributors who will undergo periodic rate reviews this year. After defining the methodology of the third round of rate reviews, the distributors that had the duration of their rates extended have 28 days to submit the initial information necessary for calculating the rate reviews, except those relating to the Regulatory Remuneration Base*, which still follows Resolution No. 342/2008.
The resolution also determines the retroactive application of new contract values at the date of the rate reviews. The change in revenue resulting from the difference among the rates applied in the interim period of validity of the rate reviews and approval as defined in the final results will be calculated and compensated.
