Energy Provision Sale of energy to large consumers. Energy Supply Sale of energy to distributors and sellers who resell it to their clients. FIDC Credit Rights Investment fund, as established by the rules of the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM). Receivables securitization. 17

18 Free Market See ACL. Generator A company that produces energy. GSF (Generation Scaling Factor, MRE Factor) is an Adjustment Factor on Assured Generated Energy that consider a reduction of assured energy of the MRE units when the total energy generated is less than the total assured energy. GSF = Hydraulic Generation in SIN / Total Generation in SIN. Then a GSF <100% indicates that the MRE plants generated less than their physical security Installed Capacity (Installed Power Capacity) Maximum amount of electricity that may be delivered by a generating unit, a hydroelectric power plant or a generating park. Installed Power Capacity See Installed Capacity. MCSD Mechanism for Compensating Surpluses and Deficits Reallocation process between Distribution Agents who participate in the Electric Energy Trading Board CCEE, of surpluses and deficits in sums of energy contracted in the Regulated Contracting Market ACR. Through this process, distributors can transfer up to 3% of those sums they maintain under purchase agreement with generators to other distributors per year. MME Ministry of Mines and Energy The MME is the Brazilian government s primary authority the power industry. Its main duties are drafting guidelines for the granting of concessions and issuing directives governing the bidding process for concessions that relate to public services and public assets. MRE Energy Reallocation Mechanism A mechanism for sharing the water source risks associated to the electric energy optimization of the National Interconnected System (SIN) relating to the centralized dispatch of the electric energy generation units. This means that eventual generation shortages by a plant under the ONS may be covered by another plant in the system, with a view to optimize the system. These compensations are remunerated by the Optimization Energy Tariff TEO. MW- Megawatt Measurement unit of mechanical or electrical energy, thermal flow and energetic radiation flow, equivalent to one million watts. MW average - Megawatt average Measurement unit related to energy in MegaWatt-hour (MWh) divided by number of hours of the period.
