Celesc (CLSC3; CLSC4) reported that the Brazilian Electricity Regulatory Agency (ANEEL) approved, on August 18, 2026, the result of the Periodic Tariff Review (RTP) of Celesc Distribuição S.A., with an average effect of 10.82% on tariffs, effective as of August 22, 2026.
According to the company, the average effect will be 14.16% for consumers connected at high voltage (above 2.3 kV) and 9.26% for consumers connected at low voltage (below 2.3 kV).
The average effect of 10.82% is mainly due to the inclusion of regulatory financial components calculated in the current tariff process, the repositioning of Celesc’s Parcel B, which groups the distributor’s manageable costs, and the increase in sector charges allocated to funding public policies and funds in the electric power sector.
In the composition of the average effect, the share allocated to the distribution activity (Parcel B) contributed 1.61% and corresponds to 16.2% of Celesc Distribuição’s new annual revenue. Charges account for 22% of revenue, transmission for 10%, energy purchases for 28%, unrecoverable revenues for 1%, and taxes for 23%, of which 19% is ICMS and 4% is PIS/COFINS.
The RTP summary table indicates a contribution of 1.17% from sector charges, 0.73% from transmission costs, 0.22% from energy purchases, and 0.07% from unrecoverable revenues in Parcel A, totaling 2.19%. The economic adjustment (RT) is 3.80%, the financial components of the current process add up to 8.43%, and the removal of financial components from the previous process reduces the total by 1.40%, resulting in the average effect of 10.82% passed on to consumers.
