  (1) Certain land sites linked to concession contracts and without provision for reimbursement are amortized in accordance with the period of the concession.

 

Depreciation rates, which take into consideration the expected useful life of the assets, are revised annually by Management and are as follows:

 

Generation   (%)   Administration   (%)
Reservoirs, dams and watercourses     2     Software     20  
Buildings – Machine room     2     Vehicles     14.29  
Buildings – Other     3.33     IT equipment in general     16.67  
Generator     3.33     General equipment     6.25  
Water turbine     2.5     Buildings – Other     3.33  
Pressure tunnel     3.13              
Command station, panel and cubicle     3.57              
Floodgate     3.33              

 

The average annual depreciation rate for the year 2020 is 3.14% (3.13% in 2019 and 3.72% in 2018). The segregation by activity is as follows:

 

Hydroelectric Generation   Wind Power Generation   Administration
  2.96 %     4.94 %     6,19 %

 

The Company has not identified any evidence of impairment of its Property, plant and equipment assets. The generation concession contracts provide that at the end of each concession the grantor must determine the amount to be indemnified to the Company for the residual value. Management believes that the amounts ultimately received will be higher than the historical residual value.

 

The residual value of the assets is the residual balance of the assets at the end of the concession contract which will be transferred to the grantor at the end of the concession contract and for which Cemig is entitled to receive in cash. For contracts under which Cemig does not have a right to receive such amounts or there is uncertainty related to collection of the amounts, such as in the case of thermal generation and hydroelectric generation as an independent power producer, no residual value is recognized, and the depreciation rates are adjusted so that all the assets are depreciated within the concession term.

 

Consortium

 

The Company is a partner in an energy generation consortium for the Queimado plant, for which no separate company with independent legal existence was formed to manage the object of the concession. The Company’s portion in the consortium is recorded and controlled individually in the respective categories of PP&E and Intangible assets.
