Overview
- The Ministry of Infrastructure published Resolution 827/2026 signed by Minister Gabriel Katopodis that formally convokes a virtual audiencia pública for 16 December to consider the RTI proposals.
- The Subsecretaría de Energía will preside and OCEBA will participate while the provincial distributors EDELAP, EDEN, EDEA, EDES and federations of municipal cooperatives will present income requests and quinquennial investment plans.
- The session is scheduled from 9:00 to 18:00 with live transmission on the ministry’s YouTube channel and can be extended to the next day; the resolution includes rules and an online registration form that the ministry will publish.
- The province will review the Fondo Provincial Compensador Tarifario (FPCT), the equalization mechanism that redistributes distribution costs so similar consumers pay comparable amounts regardless of location.
- The hearing follows a RTI relaunch begun in 2024 with UBA’s Faculty of Law as consultant and comes under heightened scrutiny because repeated power cuts, especially in La Plata, have increased public pressure on distributors and regulators.
