(1)This includes the impairment reversal, in the amount of R$14, recognized in the Income Statement under “Other expenses”, as a result of the test of impairment of intangible assets, relating to the authorization for wind power generation granted to Volta do Rio, on December 31, 2020. More information is available on this note.
(2)The transfers were made between Intangible assets, concession contract assets, financial assets and property, plant and equipment are as follows: (1) R$906 from concession contract assets to intangible assets; (2) R$2 from property, plant and equipment to intangible assets; and (3) R$5 from concession financial asset to intangible assets.

 

Concession assets

The energy and gas distribution infrastructure assets already in service and that will be fully amortized during the concession term are recorded as intangible assets. Assets linked to the infrastructure of the concession that are still under construction are posted initially as contract assets, as detailed in Note 15.

 

The main amortization rates, which take into account the useful life that management expects for the asset, and reflect the expected pattern of their consumption, are as follows:

     
Energy (%) Administration (%)
System cable - below 69 KV 6.67 Software 20.00
System cable - below 69 KV 3.57 Vehicles 14.29
Structure - Posts 3.57 General equipment 6.25
Overhead distribution transformer 4.00 Buildings 3.33
Circuit breaker - up to 69 kV 3.03    
Capacitor bank - up to 69 kV 6.67    
Voltage regulator - up to 69 kV 4.35    

 

Gas (%) Administration (%)
Tubing 3.33 Software 20.00
Buildings, works and improvements 4.00 Vehicles 20.00
Improvements in leased properties 10.00 Data processing equipment 20.00
Machinery and equipment 5.00 to 20.00 Furniture 10.00

 

The annual average amortization rate is 4.00% and by segment is follows:

Hydroelectric Generation Wind Power Generation Gas Distribution Administration
7.06% 8.81% 3.33% 3.91% 15.82%

 

Under the regulations of the energy segment, property, plant and equipment used in the distribution concession are linked to these services, and cannot be withdrawn, disposed of, assigned or provided in guarantee without the prior express authorization of the Grantor.

The rights of authorization of the gas distribution concession, granted to Gasmig, valued at R$381 (R$396 on December 31, 2021), and to generate wind power granted to the subsidiary Parajuru and Volta do Rio, in the total amount of R$105 (R$116 on December 31, 2021) are classified in the consolidated statement of financial position under intangibles assets and are amortized by the straight-line method, for the period of the concessions.

The Value in Use of the assets was calculated based on the projection of future expected cash flows for the operation of the assets of the subsidiary, brought to present value by the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) defined for the company’s wind generation activity, using the Firm Cash Flow (FCFF) methodology.

 

Renegotiation of hydrological risk - the Generation Scaling Factor (GSF)

On September 9, 2020, the Law 14,052 was issued, changing the Law 13,203/2015 and establishing the right of reimbursement in relation to the portion of costs incurred due to the GSF, borne by the holders of hydroelectric plants participating in the Energy Reallocation Mechanism (MRE) between 2012 and 2017.

The aim of this new law is to compensate the holders of hydroelectric plants participating in the MRE for non-hydrological risks caused by: (i) generation ventures classified as structural, related to bringing forward of physical guarantee of the plants; (ii) the restrictions on start of operation of the transmission facilities necessary for outflow of the generation output of structural projects; and (iii) generation outside the merit order system, and importation. This compensation will take the form of extension of the grant of concession or authorization to operate, limited to 7 years, calculated on the basis of the parameters applied by ANEEL.

On December 1, 2020, ANEEL issued its Normative Resolution 895, which established the methodology for calculation of the compensation, and the procedures for renegotiation of hydrological risk.

On August 03, 2021, ANEEL ratified, through the Resolution no. 2,919/2021, the terms of concession extension of hydroelectric plants participating in the MRE, including all of the Company plants suitable for the renegotiation, except for Queimado and Irapé, which renegotiate the hydrological risk through the Resolution no. 684/2015 and were not covered by the Resolution no. 2,919/2021. The values ratified are aligned with the Company estimations, based on the Resolution ANEEL no. 895/2020.

With the signing by the Company of the Term of Acceptance to the terms of Law 14,052/2020, the Company recognized, in the second quarter of 2021, an intangible asset related to the right to extend the concession, with a corresponding entry to the caption ‘Renegotiation of hydrological risk - Law 14,052/20’, in the amount of R$910.

On September 14, 2021 ANEEL ratified the grant extension of the hydroelectric plants participating in the MRE, through Resolution (ReH) 2,932/2021, including Irapé and Queimado, for which the extension were under discussion with the Grantor, and, therefore, were not included in ReH 2,919/2021. Thus, in the third quarter of 2021, there was a recognition of an increase of R$122 in Intangible assets, due to the concession’s extension of those plants. As a result, the total of Intangible assets was increased to R$ 1,032, which is recognized with a counterpart in Renegotiation of hydrological risk - Law 14,052/20.

The fair values of the concessions extension rights have been estimated individually, as shown in the table below, using the revenue approach, under which future values are converted into a single present value, discounted by the rate of profitability approved by Management for the energy generation activity, reflecting present market expectations in relation to the future amounts. The useful life of items that are components of Intangible assets has been adjusted for the new remaining concession period, i.e. the result of addition, to the original concession period, of the new concession extension granted.

The Resolution no. 2,919/2021 ratified the amount of the right to compensation for the São Simão, Jaguara, Miranda and Volta Grande generation plants, which had been owned by CEMIG GT during the period stipulated in the Law 14,052/20 to be compensated, but does not specify how this compensation will happen in the event of absence of debts with the Federal Government related to the regime of concessions determined in that Law. The amounts calculated are:

 
CEMIG Geração - Plant re-offered for tender Amount
São Simão 783
Miranda 145
Jaguara 237
Volta Grande 157
Total 1,322

 

Considering that there is no legal provision relating to how the compensation of these non-hydrological risks will happen and the Company’s right depends on the occurrence of uncertain future events, which are not totally under its control, as such these contingent assets have not been recognized.

 

Accounting policy

These mainly comprise assets related to the service concession agreements described above and software. They are measured at total acquisition cost, less amortization expenses and accumulated impairment losses, when applicable.

Any gain or loss arising upon derecognition of the asset, calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, is included in the statement of income when the asset is derecognized.
