The tariff flag, a surcharge that is triggered on  electricity bills  when the cost of energy generation rises, will rise from 9.49 reais to a value between 14 and 15 reais from September. The decision of the National Electric Energy Agency ( Aneel ) will be informed no later than next Friday. It will be an increase, therefore, between 50% and 58%.




The amount will be charged from red flag 2, the highest level in this system. The fee is charged for every 100 kilowatt-hours (kWh) consumed. The current value has been in effect since July, when there was a 52% increase, but the cost of power generation soared, requiring the increase.

The matter was discussed at a meeting with several government representatives. According to participants at this meeting, the  Ministry of Mines and Energy  suggested raising the value of the banner to 24 reais, which would be more than double the increase, for a period of three months.

However, the Ministry of Economy's proposal to charge a fee between 14 and 15 reais for a longer period, possibly six months, prevailed. It will be a period to recover the reservoirs after the start of the wet season, at the end of the year.

On Thursday, the Minister of Economy, Paulo Guedes, mentioned the need to fill the hydroelectric reservoirs. Therefore, the folder defends a middle ground for charging, in order to maintain the rate for a longer time, paying the thermoelectric plants and recovering the dams.

Since April, Guedes' ministry defends that the flag goes up, with this argument. But the flag only went up in July.

The tariff flag is an  additional  levied on electricity bills to cover the cost of energy generation by thermoelectric plants, which occurs when the level of reservoirs at hydroelectric plants is very low.

The  Center-South region  of Brazil, which concentrates the main hydroelectric plants, is going through the worst drought in the last 91 years, according to the government. This makes the government use much more   gas, oil and coal thermoelectric plants . More expensive (especially oil and coal-fired thermals), these plants work as an “insurance” to guarantee the energy supply.

The cost of this insurance arising from the activation of thermal plants is fully passed on to electricity consumers.

The  Aneel  defends the flags because, without it, all the extra cost would be passed on to consumers only in the following year, with fixed values. In other words, the consumer ended up paying interest, which does not happen with the activation of tariff flags.

The perception of the gravity of the water crisis has worsened in recent days. A new technical note from the National Electric System Operator (ONS) outlines a scenario of "degradation" in the level of storage of reservoirs and states that, without the "incorporation of additional resources", there will be an electricity deficit in October and November of this year. year.

This means that energy consumption tends to be greater than supply if there are no new energy generation units. That is, if there is no strong savings or additional source of energy, there is a great risk of blackout.

The  ONS  states that it is necessary to increase the energy supply by 5.5 GWmed to guarantee the supply of electricity from September 2021. To get an idea of ​​what this means, on Tuesday the country consumed around 73 GWmed of energy. That is, it will be necessary to take measures to guarantee an additional about 7% of energy.

The months of July and August were the worst periods for the electricity sector in history, according to ONS data.

The government has been looking for new energy generation offers, such as thermal plants without a contract and ways to bring more fuel to these plants. These measures, however, have costs, and these costs end up being passed on to consumers.
