Receivables [Abstract] |
FINANCING RECEIVABLES | FINANCING RECEIVABLES Financing receivables are defined as receivables with contractual maturities of greater than one year. The Company’s financing receivables are primarily related to amended agreements or government resolutions that are due from CAMMESA. Presented below are financing receivables by country as of the periods indicated (in millions):

Argentina | $ | 218 |  |  | $ | 237 |
United States | 21 |  |  | 20 |
Brazil | 9 |  |  | 7 |
Total long-term financing receivables | $ | 248 |  |  | $ | 264 |
Argentina — Collection of the principal and interest on these receivables is subject to various business risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, the completion and operation of power plants which generate cash for payments of these receivables, regulatory changes that could impact the timing and amount of collections, and economic conditions in Argentina. The Company monitors these risks, including the credit ratings of the Argentine government, on a quarterly basis to assess the collectability of these receivables. The Company accrues interest on these receivables once the recognition criteria have been met. The Company’s collection estimates are based on assumptions that it believes to be reasonable but are inherently uncertain. Actual future cash flows could differ from these estimates.
