This figure primarily relates to the Energy Development Account (CDE) for 2027—a fund that finances programs and subsidies within the electricity sector, including:
Social Tariffs for low-income consumers;
Universal access to electricity (such as Electricity for All]
Subsidies for distributed generation;
Incentives for renewable energy sources;
Generation costs in isolated systems within the Amazon region.
To assess the impact of this figure on electricity bills, I compared it against the total annual volume of electricity consumption in Brazil, arriving at a cost of approximately USD 20/MWh per year.
That is a significant amount! And this brings us to the core question: does it make sense?
