Overview
- Osinergmin confirmed that from Friday, September 4, regulated tariffs for residential and commercial users on the Sistema Eléctrico Interconectado Nacional (SEIN) will remain unchanged.
- Customers served by Sistemas Eléctricos Aislados will face average increases of 0.84% for households and 1.09% for commercial and industrial users.
- The regulator attributed the isolated-system rises to updates in the 'Precios en Barra Efectivos' that incorporate the Wholesale Price Index and recent fuel cost movements, notably diesel.
- A stable regulated tariff for SEIN users does not guarantee the same bill amount because final charges depend on each customer's recorded consumption and contract billing periods.
- Osinergmin conducts monthly reviews that use variables such as the IPM, exchange rate, natural gas prices and international metal quotations to pass through efficient cost changes rather than set discretionary rates.
