New Account Statement, Billing And Payment Rulebook

On March 15, 2016, the Energy Ministry ("SENER") published in the Federal Official Gazette an Accord that issues the Account Statement, Billing and Payment Rulebook (the "Accord").

The Rulebook develops the content of the 17th Provision of the Guideline for the Electric Market, on the negotiation processes for the issuance of daily account statements, billing, payments and charges performed by the National Center of Energy Control ("CENACE") and the Market Participants (the "Participants") for the financial liquidation process of the market operations and of the services rendered outside of the market.

The purpose of the Rulebook is to develop the processes that are carried out for issuing Daily Account Statements, the billing and payment and charges processes derived from the sale and purchase of power and associated products that constitute the Wholesale Electric Market (the "Market").
