“As far as it depends on us, there will be no taxation of solar energy. And period. No one speaks in the government but me on this issue. I am not interested in the opinions of secretaries or anyone else. The government's intention is not to tax,” said Bolsonaro shortly before blaming Aneel if the fee were to be charged.
