Schedule of additional remuneration to thermal generators

Since February 2020 an additional remuneration for the hours of maximum thermal requirement of the month (hmrt) was established, which corresponds to the 50 hours with the largest dispatch of thermal generation of each month divided into two blocks of 25 hours each, applying the following prices to the average generated power:

Renewable HI Capacity ≤ 50 MW 8,000 297,000 383,130

 

The payment for power capacity is determined by the actual capacity, hours of unavailability due to programmed and/or agreed maintenance are not computed for the calculation of the remuneration. However, to consider the incidence of programmed maintenance works in power plants, SME Note No. 46631495/19 provided for the application of a 1.05 factor over the power capacity payment.

In the case of hydroelectric power plants maintaining control structures on river courses and not having an associated power plant, a 1.20 factor is applied to the plant at the headwaters.

Lastly, an additional remuneration was established amounting 500 US$/MW-month for pumping power plants and 1,000 US$/MW-month for conventional plants, effective until January 2020. The allocation and collection of 50% of the additional remuneration were conditional upon the generator taking out insurance, to CAMMESA’s satisfaction, to cover for major incidents on critical equipment, and upon the progressive updating of the plant’s control systems under an investment plan to be submitted based on criteria defined by the SEE. Later, an additional remuneration was set for the hours of maximum thermal demand (hmrt), corresponding to the 50 hours with the largest dispatch of thermal generation in each month, divided into two blocks of 25 hours each:
