In the plenary session this Wednesday (24), the TCU (Court Union accounts) analyzed representation regarding a possible omission of ANEEL (National Electric Energy Agency) monitoring the activities of MMGD (distributed micro and mini generation) of electrical energy. The rapporteur of the process is Minister Antonio Anastasia.
O report of the TCU technical unit points to evidence that the ANEEL is not exercising his/her powers adequately, allowing companies, including those linked to electricity distributors, to use distributed generation to, in practice, sell electricity.
According to the TCU, this would be a violation of Law 14.300 / 2022, which stipulates that the energy produced must be for personal consumption and not for sale.
“In this scenario, it was concluded that it was necessary to ANEEL carry out inspections to identify and act in cases of illegal energy trading, as well as improve regulation to prevent practices characterized as the sale of energy, energy credits or surplus energy within the scope of the MMGD”, noted the rapporteur minister in his vote.
Determinations
O TCU Plenary determined that the ANEEL introduce, within 60 days, action plan to improve supervision and regulation of GD.
A Agency also must conclude, within 90 days, process of collecting information, diagnosing and evaluating the need for improvements in the regulations related to Law 14.300/2021.
The TCU unit that acted in the process was AudElétrica (Audit Unit Specialized in Electrical and Nuclear Energy), linked to SecexEnergia (Secretariat for External Control of Energy and Communications).
