en.Wedoany.com Reported - The board of Brazil's National Electric Energy Agency (Aneel) approved on Tuesday (June 16) the adjustment of the distribution schedule for the bonus from the Itaipu Hydroelectric Plant (Itaipu Binacional) from the originally planned July to August.

This adjustment is based on the results of a public consultation conducted by the agency from April to May this year.

The change does not alter the core calculation method of electricity tariffs or the amount transferred, with the main objective being to simplify processes, standardize operations, and improve operational consistency, resulting in limited regulatory impact.

The bonus is transferred to electricity distributors in the form of a discount, targeting residential users with monthly consumption below 350 kWh.

Last year, the total bonus amount was 1.6 billion Brazilian reais, used to offset deficits, leading Aneel to set the transferred tariff at 17.66 USD/kW per month, a 5.99% reduction compared to 18.72 USD/kW per month without the bonus.
