Submissions may be made through the ministry’s consultation portal for 20 days. The models support generation-expansion planning, calculation of plants’ physical guarantees, system operations and short-term market pricing. The drafts propose different review paths based on the impact of a change, coordination among institutions and open technology governance; they are proposals, not final rules. ## Data ### Event in the official release Summary of the energy-sector development reported by the source.
