- Industry leaders express concern that the decree could impact future investments, affecting the sector's ability to meet growing energy demand.
- There are warnings of potential energy supply shortages, particularly if dry seasons occur and generation capacity is insufficient.
- Legal experts question the decree's constitutionality, citing potential violations of free enterprise and the principle of non-retroactivity of taxes.
- Hydraulic generators will face a new tax, requiring them to deliver 12% of energy sold in the spot market as in-kind compensation.
