A ANEEL (National Electric Energy Agency) opened an public consultation to target to seek solutions that contribute to the increased consumer satisfaction of distributors of electrical energy.
A proposal suggests the creation of a component called “User Satisfaction” To be incorporated into the electricity bill calculation, so that an unsatisfactory performance of a distributor – determined by ANEEL with consumers through national research and other indicators – is reflected in a reduction in the tariff value.
According to the regulator's proposal, the consumer satisfaction – measured by the “Iasc” indicator – would become one of the components of the “X Factor” calculation, an indicator that measures the efficiency of energy distributors and determines the transfer of any gains to consumers through direct tariff reductions.
In 2022, only 0,02% of Brazilian consumer units achieved an Iasc above 70, minimum regulatory value in a range that goes up to 100. For almost 60% of consumers, the Iasc was below 60.

O diagnosis made by ANEEL, therefore, is that there is currently low consumer satisfaction in the country in relation to distributor services and that the situation has worsened in recent years.
“The consumer is the protagonist of the electricity sector. When we talk about protagonism, it means having energy when needed, with the quantity and quality needed, and being satisfied. That is what regulation seeks,” said Hélvio Guerra, CEO of ANEEL.
A Public Consultation No. 008/2024 will stay available for collecting contributions from civil society until the 22th of April. Interested parties can send their suggestions via email: cp008_2024@aneel.gov.br.
