Proiect Oblectives: The project is designed to achieve the following objectives: (a) help provide efficient supply of energy in the mid 19905 by ensuring completion of Yacyret§'s civil works and commissioning of its first six units with an adequate transmission system; (b) bring about tighter environrmcntal protection and appropriate handling of social aspects in Yacyreta; and (c) encourage private capital participation in EBY. Prolect Benefits: The project would enhance the allocation of Argentina's scarce financial resources by facilitatingthe completion of the two largest ongoing projects (Yacyreta, by direct financing,and Piedra del Aguila, by use of 4reed Treasury resources originally shared with Yacyrera) with relatively modest additional investments. Yacyreta's cost of completion is about half of the cost of the next best option for system expansion. Risk: The major risks facing the Project would be: a) unavailabilityof siafficientfunds or supply of electromechanical equipment at the time required for proper execution of the works, mainly due to: (i) untimely contributionfrom Goverzment for payment of the ccntractorsand; (ii) delays in the negotiation with suppliers (or export credit agencies) for financing of electrical equipment that remains to be contracted out; (b) failure to implement satisfactorily the programs for Rer.ttlementand EnvironmentalManagement; and (c) failure to implement the transmissionsystem in a timely manner. - iv - La Cas Foreiun lecal CetCt TotalcostC - - YacyretfGeneration pj 402.5 814.0 1216.5 48 Yacyret6Transmission 54.5 51.3 105.8 4 Base Cost bt 457.0 865.3 1322.3 52 PhysicalContingencies 29.0 31.4 60.4 2 PriceContingencies 29.0 78.1 107.1 4 Total Investuent 515.0 974.8 1489.8 58 DebtService Interest/OtherCharges S/ 27.6 630.8 658.4 25 Amortization 41.1 401.8 442.9 17 TotalDebt Service 68.7 1032.6 1101.3 42 |Investnt and Debt Service 583.7 2007.4 2591.1 100 [_ _I ' -- -' -"LL Net Internal Funds 57.1 37.7 94.8 3 Loans Governoent 335.8 1268.8 1604.6 62 IBRD S/ 137.4 162.6 300.0 12 IDB 15.8 15.7 31.5 1 Export/Supplier Credits 37.6 522.6 560.2 22 Estimated Disbursement: 1" I "" I I 1 tow Annualt 196 68 31 4 1 Cumulative 196 264 295 299 300 Rate of Return: Economic Rate of Return: 17* IBRD Nos. 14128R and 21188R I/ Thisbasically corresponds to theperiod 1992-1995, except for someUSS1.5 million of Bank-financed technicalassistance for resettlementand environmentalmanagement programs after this period. ki January 1992price level.

The referred to documentation reflects the Company’s performance in its twenty-sixth fiscal year. The year ended last December 31 was, for our Company, a historic year. The Company marked 25 years since its foundation, it was our 10th anniversary as a public company at both the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange, and finally on February 1, 2017 the first Tariff Structure Review went into effect, thus bringing to an end almost 15 years of regulatory irregularity and opening a horizon of predictability for our activities for the next 5 years. ENRE Resolution No. 63/17 approved the Electricity Rate Schedules applicable to the different customer categories as from February 1, 2017, including the application of the Social Tariff benefit. It also approved the gradual application of the Company’s Own Distribution Cost values as from February and November 2017, and February 2018, providing that the resulting difference between the Company’s Own Distribution Cost approved and the revenue actually received from the aforementioned gradual application, would be incorporated in customer bills in 48 monthly installments as from February 1, 2018.

  • Cepernic Dams in Argentine Patagonia
    LAD CASE STUDY Is it Possible to Say No to China? The Case of the Kirchner-Cepernic Dams in f Argentine Patagonia Juan Lucci LAD ABOUT LAD The Leadership Academy for Development (LAD) trains government officials and business leaders from developing countries to help the private sector be a constructive force for economic growth and development. It teaches carefully selected participants how to be effective reform leaders, promoting sound public policies in complex and contentious settings. LAD is a project of the Center on Democracy, Development and the Rule of Law, part of Stanford University’s Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies, and is conducted in partnership with the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies. Is it Possible to Say No to China? The Case of the Kirchner- Cepernic Dams in Argentine Patagonia In November 2015, newly elected Argentine President Mauricio Macri announced suspension of construction on the Kirchner-Cepernic mega dams. Located on the Santa Cruz River near the famous Perito Moreno Glacier (UNESCO World Heritage Site) that feeds from the same river, the project was judged unacceptable due to its potential impact on the environment. An agreement for construction of the dams had been signed during the administration of Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner with the Chinese company Gezhouba, financed by three Chinese banks - China Development Bank (CDB), Bank of China (BoC), and the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC). The two dams were to be constructed over five years at a cost of US$ 4.7 billion. They would generate 5% of the national energy demand and employ 5,000 people during construction.
