Consumers From Mato Grosso, Mato Grosso Do Sul, and São Paulo Had Electricity Bill Rates Maintained Until The 20th; When There Should Be Another Adjustment

As the economic crisis worsens, the last thing people want to hear about is a rise in energy costs. The National Electric Energy Agency (Aneel) wants to decide by April 20 the rules that will be applied in an attempt to reduce the percentage increase in electricity bills. Some distributors may increase the energy bill by up to 27%.

Aneel Extends Current Electricity Bill Rate

Aneel announced yesterday that the following utilities had their current electricity bill rate extended: Energisa Mato Grosso, Energisa Mato Grosso Do Sul, and CPFL Paulista. Energisa Mato Grosso serves a total of 1.5 million consumer units, Energisa Mato Grosso do Sul serves 1 million units, while CPFL Paulista serves about 4 million units in São Paulo.

Why Did Aneel Decide to Extend The Current Rate?

The agency’s management decided to extend the measure to prevent people from facing a much larger increase than inflation. The National Consumer Price Index (IPCA-15) indicates in a previous report released last month that the increase during the period is 5.57%. André Pepitone, Aneel’s director general, stated that new rules are being established to ensure that all adjustments do not exceed single-digit figures. He emphasized that they are working hard to prevent the escalation of bill increases: “In order to contain this tariff escalation, we needed a few days to work on the calculations”.

Desert sand, previously discarded for being too smooth for concrete, becomes an ecological brick in the United Arab Emirates, dispensing with Portland cement, curing at room temperature, and attempting to transform dunes useless for construction into raw material for a new arid engineering.

Chinese woman planted trees for decades while sand buried part of her house, received $5,000 from an American in 1999, and helped transform the desert into a forest of 8 million trees in China.

Scientists have created a material six times lighter than air, 75 times lighter than styrofoam, and that becomes stronger the more it is compressed: aerographite seems impossible, but it can reinforce structures, batteries, and satellites.

With 70 tons of rock removed by hand and an 800-year-old abandoned cave, a former businessman transforms a dark shelter into a modern home carved in the heart of the forest.

Between Egypt and Sudan, Bir Tawil is no man’s land that neither country wants on paper, but in practice has gold mining, nomadic tribes, and even fake “kings.”

New portable bathroom is ready in 90 seconds, measures 2.18 meters, fits in the car when closed, and offers privacy for showering and changing clothes.

In Matopiba, soybeans have replaced rice and beans, and traditional Cerrado communities that used to grow their own food now have to buy it, while pesticides from neighboring farms reach the springs.
