Our subsidiaries develop independent capital investment plans that are funded by funds generated internally or by direct funding. One of our goals is to focus on those investments that will yield long-term benefits, such as projects to reduce energy losses. Additionally, focusing on Enersis group and seeking to provide services to all companies in the group, our goal is to reduce investment at the individual subsidiary companies in elements such as procurement systems, telecommunications and information systems. While we have studied how to finance these investments as part of the budget process of the Company, no particular financing structure has been committed and our investments will depend on market conditions at the time they need to get the cash flow. Our investment plan is flexible enough to adapt to the changing circumstances by giving different priorities to each project according to its profitability and strategic consistency. Investment priorities are currently focused on developing the works plan in Peru and Colombia.

The portfolio includes for the calculation of the Value at Risk composed by: > Financial Debt. > Derivatives for Debt coverage. The calculated Value at Risk represents the possible variation of the portfolio’s value previously described in the duration of a quarter with a 95% of confidence. For that purpose there is a volatility study of the risk variables that affect the position portfolio’s value, with respect to the Chilean Peso, including: > US dollar Libor interest rate. > The different currencies in which our company operates, the regular local indexes for banking practices. > The exchange rates of the different currencies considered in the calculations. The Value at Risk calculations are based on the extrapolation of future scenarios (in one quarter) of the market values of the risk variables in terms of the scenarios based on real observations for the same period (quarter) in five years. The Value at Risk of a quarter with a 95% of confidence is calculated as a 5% percentile more adverse of the possible variations in the period. Considering the hypothesis described above, the Value at Risk in a quarter of the positions described, corresponds to M$ 112,729,307. This value represents the potential increase in the debt and derivatives portfolio, so this value at risk is directly related, among other factors, to the value of the portfolio at the end of each quarter. 109 Other Risk Factors liquidity, or raise interest rates available to the Company.

In addition, subsidiaries may be required to pay fines or compensate customers if subsidiaries can not provide electricity, even if such non-compliance is due to forces beyond the control of subsidiaries. Enel Américas has the water rights for the supply originating from the rivers and lakes located in the vicinity of its generation facilities. These rights were granted To meet payment obligations, Enel Américas depends on payments from its subsidiaries, joint management companies, and associate companies. 114 Enel Américas Annual Report 2016 To pay its obligations, Enel Américas depends in part on subsidiaries and associate’s capacity to pay dividends, the cash it receives in respect of dividends, loans, interest credit amortizations, or to deliver other distributions that payments, capital reductions and other payments from its Enel Américas is limited by its operational results.

Additionally, some Enel Américas trusts in the electricity transmission systems that are not their property neither in their control. If these installations do not provide a proper transmission service, it can impede the energy delivery that it sells to the final clients. In order to deliver the electricity sold, the Company depends on the transmission system property of other companies that are not related and are operated independently. This dependency exposes the Company to severe risks. If the transmission is interrupted or the transmission employees have highly specialized abilities and certain actions such as strikes, task abandonment, suspension, for those employees could adversely impact the business performance, operational result, and financial, as well as their reputation.

In addition, there are doubts as to whether a successful action could be waived in Chile with regard to the liability based solely under the guidance of the United States federal securities laws. Interruption or failure of the information technology systems and communications systems or external attacks or breaches of these systems could have an adverse effect on operations and results. The Company relies on information technology, communication and process systems (“IT systems”) to operate its business, the failure of which could adversely affect the condition of the business, financial and operational results. IT systems are vital for power generating subsidiaries so that they can monitor plant operations, maintaining the power generation and network performance, adequately generate customer invoices, achieve operational efficiency, and meet service goals and standards. Distribution subsidiaries could also be adversely affected as they rely heavily on IT systems to monitor their networks, billing processes for millions of customers, and customer service platforms. Temporary or long-term operational failures of 119 120 Enel Américas Annual Report 2016 Company Reorganization 121 122 Enel Américas Annual Report 2016 During 2016 a process of corporate reorganization process was concluded that pursued the division of Chilean and non- Chilean companies. The first phase of the reorganization consisted of the separation of the then Endesa Chile, Chilectra and Enersis between the Chilean and non-Chilean businesses of electricity generation, distribution and transmission by means of a Spin- Off according to the Chilean legislation (the “Spin-Offs”). Following the approval of the Spin-Offs by the respective shareholders of Endesa Chile, Chilectra and Enersis at their Extraordinary Shareholders Meetings held on December 18, 2015. The companies division took place on March 1, 2016 and the Spin-Offs were concluded on April 21, 2016, giving room for the creation and public listing of the shares of the new companies constituted by Spin-Offs, Enersis Chile S.A., Endesa Américas S.A. and Chilectra Américas S.A. The second phase of the reorganization was the merger between the companies “Américas”, which consolidated non- Chilean assets. On September 28, 2016, the respective shareholders of Enersis Américas, Endesa Américas and Chilectra Américas approved the Endesa Américas Merger and Chilectra Américas, Enersis Américas, with Enersis Américas remaining as the continuing company. The merger combined the non-Chilean generation, transmission, and distribution businesses under a single company, contributing to the simplification of the group’s corporate structure and providing benefits such as reducing the flight of cash flows in the subsidiaries, aligning strategic interests, taking more efficient decisions and greater operational efficiencies. On December 1, 2016, the Merger took place and from that date Enersis Américas has incorporated the entire shareholding of Endesa Américas and Chilectra Américas and succeeded them in all their rights and obligations. On the same date, Endesa Américas and Chilectra Américas were totally dissolved without liquidation. As a result of the merger, we issued 9,232,202,625 new shares and our final controlling shareholder, Enel SpA, now owns 51.03% of our shares. As part of this process: (i) Enersis changed its name to Enersis Américas S.A. on March 1, 2016 and then to Enel Américas S.A. on December 1, 2016); (ii) Endesa Chile changed its name to Enel Generación Chile S.A. on October 1, 2016; (iii) Chilectra changed its name to Enel Distribución Chile S.A. On October 1, 2016, and (iv) Enersis Chile S.A. changed its name to Enel Chile S.A. on October 1, 2016. 123 124 Enel Américas Annual Report 2016 Regulatory Framework of the Electricity Industry 126 Enel Américas Annual Report 2016 Description of the Industry Sector Enel Américas and its subsidiaries and jointly controlled companies participate in the generation, transportation, distribution and sale of electricity in five countries, each of which has a regulatory framework, energy matrixes, participating companies, and different growth and consumption patterns. The following is a brief summary of the main legal bodies that regulate the activity, the market structure and the most relevant aspects regarding the agents of each of the countries where the company operates. Argentina he Argentine electricity sector is governed by, among other became valid in February of 2013 and was updated through regulations, by Law N°15,336 of 1990 and Law N°24,065 of the Resolution SE N° 529, N° 482, N° 22 in 2014, 2015, and 1992. The Wholesale Electricity Market (MEM) there are four 2016 respectively. local agent categories (generators, transmission companies, distributors and large clients) and foreign agents (generation The transmission sector works in conditions of monopoly, trading companies and demand trading companies), and is composed by several companies to which the Federal companies that are authorized to buy and sell electricity and Government grants concessions. its related products. The distribution sector, on its part, operates under monopoly Originally the generation sector was organized on a conditions and is served by companies that have also been competitive base (marginalism), with independent generators granted concessions. Distribution companies have the that sold their energy in the MEM spot market or through exclusive responsibility that electricity has to be available for private contracts, to clients in the MEM contracts market, final clients within a specific concession area, and does not or to the “Administrative Companies in the Wholesale consider if the client has a contract neither with the distributor Electricity Market S.A.” (CAMMESA) through special nor with a generator. transactions such as contracts under the Resolution S.E.

Nevertheless, TIn 2002, due to the economic slow down that affected the this regimen changed substantially in March 2013, when country, Law Nº25,561 was enacted with emergency. The the Energy Secretary approved Resolution S.E Nº 95/2013, Law disrupted the American dollar parity and pushed the which established a remuneration system for the generation conversion from Argentine pesos from obligations and rights based on average costs, forcing the delivery all the energy assumed by the American currency. This forced nominal generated to CAMMESA. This new compensation scheme conversion from dollars to pesos and had a strong impact 127 in the whole Argentinian electricity industry. Additionally, the Government approved several regulatory measures that slowly intervened in the development of the industry. The Emergency Law has been subject to successive extensions and with regards to the last one, approved through Law N°26,896, will be valid until December 31, 2015. The pesification and devaluation of the economy forced the Regulation of Generation Companies renegotiation of all of the concession contracts. In particular, The regulation of generation companies has suffered the distribution sector and the company participated in the important variations since the enactment of Law N°24,065 “Energy Distributing Companies from the South, S.A.” until Resolution S.E.E Nº 22/2017. In accordance with the (Edesur), and in 2006 with the Government when an Act aforementioned Law, every generation agents from MEM Agreement of Contractual Renegotiation was signed, that must be connected with SIN (National Interconnected subsequently was ratified through Decree PEN N° 1959/2006, System) and are obligated to comply with the dispatch which gradually has allowed the adaptation of tariff revenues order to generate and deliver electricity, in order to sell as a way to guarantee the business sustainability.

Administration how to carry out consumer rationalization programs in the respective public bodies. The approved resolutions created from the emergency Law had a significant impact in energy prices. Between the measures carried out it mainly highlights the Resolution SE 240/2003, which modified the way to fix spot prices when separating the calculation of marginal operating costs. The main objective of Resolution SE Nº 240/2003 is to avoid the price indexation linked to the dollar, and despite that the generation study is still based on the real fuels used, the spot price calculation is based on absolute gas availability to satisfy demand, even in circumstances 128 Enel Américas Annual Report 2016 in which many generators generate with alternative fuels, In 2012, the framework of the agreement achieved with the such as diesel, due to the difficulty of supplying natural Government to enable the development of our subsidiaries gas.

The fees, on On March 13, 2015 the Official Bulletin for Resolution SE their part, have remained frozen since 2008. N° 32/2015 was published, which meant the accountable recognition of an income of ARS$2,339 million. The most In January 28, 2016, after the seasonal price changes, important aspects of this resolution are: (i) approves a the Emergency Resolution No. 7/2016 was issued by the transitory increase on the Edesur income valid starting Ministry of Energy and Mining. The resolution introduced February 1 of 2015 exclusively destined to the payment by the ENRE to adjust Edenor and Edesur fees through of energy that is acquired in the electricity market, from a transitory tariff until the RTI start to be applied, which wages, and provisions and services; said increase, taking is expected for December 31, 2016. Also, Resolution No. 133 7/2016 suspends the PUREE and requires the application of a subsidy rate for the more vulnerable clients. In January 29, 2016, the ENRE issued Resolution No. 1/2016 with a new transitory tariff valid from February 1, 2016. Its application is included in Resolution MEM No. 7/2016, which changed the supply procedures and defined a monthly Billing. Also, the ENRE issued Resolution No 2/2016, which ended the FOCEDE and established a new procedure for funds from Resolution ENRE 347/12, in substitution for Edesur and Edenor confidence for a commercial account. On April 5, 2016, Resolutions N° 54 and 55 were enacted by the National Electricity Regulating Entity. The first approves the Bases and Conditions for Private Companies, for the hiring of a Consultant for the RTI of EDESUR and EDENOR, and the second approves the timetable and emits guidelines for the same, indicating that ENRE defines the Parameters of Quality and the RATE. Continuing with the tariff renegotiation process, on August 8 the ENRE issued Resolution 463/16, which provide details of the parameters of the technical service and quality, and the cost and values of unsupplied energy required for the modification of the RTI. This also receives most of the contributions and modifications demanded by EDESUR to the draft that was informally delivered. Similarly, on August 29 through Resolution ENRE 492/16, the Quality of Commercial Service and Technical Product Parameters were defined. This resolution contains economic signals towards the fulfillment of deadlines and times of supply replenishment reductions. On the other hand, on August 3, the regulation entity proceeded to inform the value of the Rate of Profitability. This was established on Resolution ENRE 494/16 at 12.46% before taxes and 8.1% after taxes. On September 1, EDESUR proceeded to the final presentation of the investment plan requested by Resolution ENRE 55/16 and then receiving from the Secretary of Electric Energy the note NO-2016-01193698- APN-EDESUR RTI which established that credit and debit from the disregard of the Agreement Act would be treated separately from the income required from the RTI 134 Enel Américas Annual Report 2016 and proceeded to complete on September 6 the related reports with Fundamentals and the criteria of the proposal. Exploitation Costs. Requires the income and calculation of fees. The Tariff Structure and Wholesale transfer costs. The updating mechanisms of the Company’s distribution costs, results and economic financial model. This method concluded with the delivery of formal final reports required for the aforementioned resolution. On September 28, through Resolution ENRE 0522/2016, the regulating organism decided to call for a Public Audience with the objective of acknowledging and listening to opinions with regards to Tariff Proposals presented by the distributing companies for the next five-year period; this is part of the Integral Tariff Revision Process (RTI) and with previous character to define the tariffs to apply by the referred Subsidiaries in said five year period. On Wednesday February 1, 2017, the ENRE published Resolution N° 0064 which closed the RTI process and as a result, establishes the annual remuneration recognized by EDESUR S.A. amounting to $14,539,836,941. With regards to the application of new structures and tariff charges, the MEyM considered as timely and convenient to instruct the ENRE to limit the VAD increases that emerged as an RTI process results to be applied starting February 1, 2017, to a maximum of forty-two percent (42%) with respect to the valid VAD at that date, having to complete the resulting value application of the new VAD, in two stages: the first in November 2017, and the last on February 2018. Also, it was decided that the ENRE must recognize EDENOR S.A. and EDESUR S.A. the VAD difference that is produced by the application of gradual fee increases recognized by RTI, in 48 (forty-eight) installments starting from February 1°, 2018, which increases the resulting VAD value as of that date. The regulation also sets revenues updates mechanism for the distribution companies as a result of price variations in the economy and all of the other issued related with the quality of the service delivered and supply regulation. Resolution SEE N° 20/2017 on seasonal prices valid from Once this regulatory framework is established with regards declared that the transition tariff phase of EDESUR was to the distribution tariffs regime including the instructions met, and the Settlement Act that the company adheres as enacted by MEyM, and the resolutions contained in established in its Concession Contract. the corresponding invoice of February 1, 2017, it was 135 Regulation of Transmission Environmental Regulation Transmission was designed on the basis of general The electricity installations are subject to environmental laws conception and the principles established by Law 24.065, and regulations, federal and local, including Law Nº24,051, adapting the activities to the general criteria contained in or Dangerous Waste Law, and its annexed regulations. the concession given by Transener S.A., in Decree 2.473/92.

The non-compliance therefore it is a monopoly and is subject to considerable of these requirements forces the Government to establish regulation. penalties, such as suspension of operations that, in the case of public service, can result in the cancellation of concessions. Law Nº26,190, enacted in 2007, defined the use of renewable sources for the generation of electricity as national interest and set as a goal 8% of the market participation for renewable energy in a 100-year term. On October 21, 2015, the Official Bulletin published the new Law 27,191, of Renewable Energy in Argentina, modifying the Law N°26,190. The new regulation postpones to December 31, 2017, with the objective of reaching 8% participation in the national demand with the generation of renewable sources and establishing as a second stage objective to reach 20% of participation by the year 2025, and setting mid goals of 12%, 16%, and 18% for the end of the years 2019, 2021, and 2023. The sanctioned Law creates a Fiduciary Fund (FODER) that could finance projects, give tax benefits to the renewable energy projects, and establish the non application of specific tributes, national royalties, regional and municipal until December 31 2025. The clients categorized as Big Users (>300 Kw) should individually fulfill the participation of the renewables, establishing establishing that the price of these contracts cannot be superior to 113 US$/MWh, and setting penalties to those who do not fulfill these objectives. The law regulations are still pending. 136 Enel Américas Annual Report 2016 Brazil Industry Structure The Brazilian electricity industry is organized in a large Price of Differences (PLD), which takes into account the interconnected system, (the National Interconnected risk aversion curve of the agents.

This mechanism has existed since 2001, and is called the Parcel A Securities Compensation Account (CVA). Its objective is to keep constant operating margins for the concessionaire in order not to allow tariff gains/losses due to the variation of Parcel A costs. The Securities Compensation Account (“CVA”) helps to maintain market stability and allows the creation of deferred costs, which is compensated by tariff adjustments based on the necessary rates to compensate for the deficits from the previous year.

Thus, in accordance with the IFRS rules, readjustment, since they are already paying a higher value the accounting of these assets is allowed. during the month. To cover the energy surcharge caused by the drought in The drive values of the flags for the year 2017 are still under 2014, the Government has created the ACR account through discussion between ANEEL, the agents and the society bank loans to be paid within two years for the tariff. In 2014 through the public hearing nº 91/2016. the distributors used an approximate amount of 18 billion reals of the ACR account, however, it was not enough to cover the entire deficit. A new loan to the ACR account was approved in March 2015 to cover the deficits of November and December of 2014. An extension of the repayment term for all loans was approved, which should now be paid in 54 months starting from November 2015. Due to the mismatches between the costs recognized in tariff and the real costs outside the management of the distributor, and intensified by the implicit costs of the drought, ANEEL, in January 2015, began to implement a system (known as Tariff Banners) of additional monthly charge on the consumer rate provided that the marginal cost of the system reaches levels above the regulatory standard. The objective of the regulator is to give the consumer an economic signal of the cost of the generation already in the subsequent month, moving forward an amount (of right) that the Distributor would only collect it in next tariff event. This mechanism - described below - consists of four levels of flags: green, yellow, red level 1 and red level 2. 141 Regulation in Transmission 2016 Adjustments (Ampla, Coelce and Enel CIEN) Any agent in the electricity market that produces or In 2016, the two distribution and the transmition companies consumes energy is authorized to use the Basic Network. in Grupo Enel in Brazil have had the following adjustments Free market consumers also have this right, subject to in their tariffs: compliance with certain technical and legal requirements. Free access is guaranteed by law and supervised by ANEEL. The operation and administration of the Basic Network is the responsibility of the ONS, which also has the responsibility Compañía Ampla Coelce of managing the dispatch of energy from the plants in Enel CIEN optimum conditions, involving the use of the interconnected system, reservoirs and thermal plants. % Adjustment in 2016 7.38% 12.97% 9.32% On April 5, 2011, it was published in the Official Gazette, the Ministerial Docks 210/2011 and 211/2011, which equate the two interconnection lines of the Energy Interconnection Company, S.A. to concessions of public service, with payment according to a regulated toll. The Annual Permitted Remuneration (hereinafter “RAP”) is adjusted annually, in June, by the National Broad Consumer Price Index (“IPCA”) with tariff revisions every four years. It was defined a Gross Remuneration Base of $1,760 million of Reals (US $885 million) and a Net Base of $1,160 million Reales (US $585 million). In 2012 ANEEL authorized the implementation of reinforcements in the transmission facilities, recognizing an additional investment of $47 million reals (US $23 million), in the Remuneration Base. The applicable remuneration rate was defined in agreement with the current regulation at 7.24% (real after tax). The authorization period is until June 2020, for Line 1, and until July 2022, for Line 2, with a welfare compensation for unamortized investments. 142 Enel Américas Annual Report 2016 Colombia Structure of the Industry Law 142 of the Home Public Services, and the 143, responsible for the planning and expansion of the network Electricity Law, structurally reformed the Colombian and the Superintendence of Industry and Commerce (SIC) electricity sector both enacted in 1994.

The Law 142 of 1994, established that the legal regime of public services and the Law 143 of 1994 focused, particularly, in the service of electric power service, determined the types of entities authorized to provide residential public service, in this sense it was created the “Public Service Company” as the fundamental for this provision. In the short-term energy market, the CND receives, each day, the offers of prices and the declaration of commercial availability for each hour of the following day, of all the generators participating in the wholesale market. Based on this information, the CND performs an economic dispatch through an optimized procedure for the next 24-hour period of the following day, taking into account the electrical and operation restrictions of the system, as well as other conditions necessary to satisfy the expected energy demand for the next day in safe, reliable and economic manner from the cost point of view. Unlike the rest of the countries where the office is centralized based on variable costs of production, in Colombia, the office is based on prices offered by agents. The energy market is a market of adjustments, where the excess energy is sold or bought against the real energy demand of generators and retailers. The power exchange the determined spot price is established by the ASIC after the day of operation is established by means of an optimized procedure for the 24-hour period called the ideal dispatch, which implies an infinite transmission capacity in the network and takes into account the initial conditions of operation, thus establishing which generators had to be dispatched to satisfy the actual demand. The price paid to all generators that are dispatched for merit of price is the price of the most expensive generator dispatched every hour under the ideal dispatch. 145 The cost differences between the ‘economic dispatch’ and closing value in the auction for the strong energy or the ‘ideal dispatch’ are called ‘restriction costs’.

The Ministry defines, issues and executes policies and regulations focused on the recovery, conservation, protection, organization, administration and use of renewable resources. Any entity contemplating the development of projects or activities related to the generation, interconnection, transmission or distribution of electricity, which may cause an impact, deterioration and/or introduce significant or notorious changes to the environmental landscape, must apply for an environmental license prior to the start of activities For the power plants already operating, through Law No. 99, it was established that generating plants that have a total installed capacity of more than 10 MW, should contribute to the conservation of the environment, transferring to municipalities and environmental corporations in the area where the power plants are located, a percentage associated with the generation of energy. Hydroelectric plants must pay 6% of their generation and thermal plants must pay 4% of their generation, with rates that are determined annually. In 2011, Decree 3,570 established the new structure of the environmental sector thus creating the Ministry of Environment and Sustainable Development (previously, the functions of the Ministry of Environment were established along with the functions of the Ministry of Housing). In the same year, Decree 3.573 created the National Environmental Licensing Authority as the entity responsible for granting and monitoring environmental licenses, permits and procedures of the Ministry of Environment and Sustainable Development. In Colombia, Law 1,715 was issued in 2014, which regulates the integration of NCREs into the National Energy System, with the objective of promoting the development and use of non-conventional sources of energy and promoting efficient management of the energy. 149 In 2015, the Ministry of Mines and Energy issued Decree In general, the environmental regulation for the electricity 2143 of 2015, which defines the guidelines for the sector has been focused on regulating aspects related to: application of fiscal and tax incentives established in Law i) emissions from thermal plants; (ii) formulation, issuance 1,715.

Just a small COES manages: dispatch coordination of electric operations, maintained under the bilateral contract scheme. the determination of the spot prices, and the management of economic transaction that occur in the SEIN. Another norm that impacted the electric market was Urgent portion of the electricity bought by distribution companies, is Decree N° 049-2008, which introduced the so-called “Ideal Generation companies can sell their energy directly to Marginal Cost”, which assumes that for economic dispatch distribution cpmpanies and free clients and liquidate their effects, SEIN marginal costs in the short term are determined differences in the spot market at marginal costs. The sales to considering that there are no restrictions in natural gas non-regulated clients are carried out in prices and conditions (production or transport), nor for electricity transmission; mutually agreed, which includes fees and compensations by and that marginal costs cannot be superior to a limit value the use of transmission systems, and if it is the case, fees defined by the Ministry of Energy and Mining, said Urgent for the use of the distribution channels. Decree is valid until October 1, 2017. The Electric Concessions Law allows the subscription of In Peru the payment by capacity exists, where it is given by bilateral contracts of a price no greater than the Bar Rates, the amount that compensates the development of turbine in the case of regulated clients, or at a price agreed by all gas, as a marginal unit to contribute to the system’s demand. parts in the case of unregulated clients. As well as this Similar to Chile, the payment by capacity is independent from bilateral method, Law 28,832 from 2006, denominated the dispatch, and remunerates the availability and contribution Law to Ensure Efficient Development of Electric Generating, to the aimed reserve margin decided by the competent also established the possibility that distributors can satisfy authorities. regulated and unregulated client demands by concluded agreements after a power bidding process and energy supervised by Osinergmin. The approval of this mechanism is important for the generators because it allows them to dispose of a stable price during the contract life, which is not set by the regulator and can have duration of 20 years. 152 Enel Américas Annual Report 2016 Regulation for Distribution Companies The electricity tariff for regulated clients includes charges tariff system allows a greater return to the distribution for energy and power, for the generation and transmission, companies that are more efficient than the model company. and the Distribution Added Value (VAD) that considers a The preliminary tariffs are determined by taking as a base the regulated return for investments, fixed operating charges results of a study hired the company, corrected according to and maintenance, and a standard percentage for energy the Osinergmin.

Also, the tariffs are indexed to the exchange rate, the price On September 2015 the Decree N° 1,221 was published, index to the greatest (IPM), and the commodities price as through which the fixed VAD (Distribution Added Value) is copper and aluminum, with which Peru has no exchange establishes that it will be carried out every four (4) years and risks. will be calculated for each company (before this decree the VAD was calculated for a company that was representative During the last setting tariff process, the OSINERGMIN of the group and typical sector, and this VAD is applied to all defined the Edelnor tariffs for the period of November of the companies that made up the respective group). Also, 2013 to October 2017. The same have been extended until an additional charge to the fees in technologically innovative October 31, 2018, through the Ministerial Resolution N° projects and efficient energy projects previously approved 530-2016-MEM/DM published in December 2016. by the Osinergmin. The real return on the investment of a distribution company depends on its performance with respect to the standards set by Osinergmin for a theoretical model company. The 153 Regulation of Transmission The transmission activities are under different regimes. The installations built before 2006 are divided in the Main System, that is for common used and allows the flow of energy through the national net, and the Secondary System are flow reds mostly unidirectional and are useful for evacuating energy from one generator plant or to take energy to the final consumer. The Transmission Plan, elaborated by the COES and approved by the MINEM, determines the development of the Guaranteed System lines, which are bid through a BOOT framework with a maximum duration of 30 years. The transmission concessions of the Guaranteed System receive an annual fixed income from said bids. The Complementary System lines are developed through investment plans presented by the agents and approved by the Osinergmin, an entity that calculates the average annual cost to remunerate for each installation, considering the standard investment, operating, and maintenance costs, with an updated rate of 12% before tax and a lifespan of 30 years. 154 Enel Américas Annual Report 2016 Environmental Regulation The environmental legal framework enforceable in the activities related to energy in Peru is stated in the Environmental General Law (Law N° 28611) and in the Environmental Protection Rules for Electric Activities (Supreme Decree 029-94-EM). In 2008, the MINEM enacted the Supreme Decree 050- 2008 to boost the generation of electricity through Unconventional Renewable Energy (ERNC). Said decree stipulates that up to 5% of the SEIN demand can be supplied by using ERNC. This 5% cap could be checked by competent authorities by putting in service the Renewable Energy National Plan. The technologies considered as renewable energy are: biomass, wind, tidal, geothermal, solar, and mini-hydroelectric (hydroelectric smaller than 20 MW). Until December 2016 the ERNC percentage was 2.6% in the SEIN demand, as a result of the fourth bid adjudicated in 2016, the percentage will be 4,6% for December 2018. 155 Description of the Business by Country 157 Electricity Generation In this segment, Enel Américas owns operating subsidiaries in Argentina, Brazil, Colombia and Peru. As a whole, the gross installed capacity of the Enel Américas Group reached 11,014 MW as of December 2016 and the consolidated electricity generation amounted to 40,439 GWh, while energy sales totaled 50,575 GWh. In the electricity industry, the business segmentation between hydro and thermal generation is natural, since the variable costs of generation are different for each method of electricity production. Thermal generation requires the purchase of fossil fuels and hydroelectric generation requires the water that comes from dams and rivers. 54% of our consolidated generation capacity comes from hydroelectric sources and 46% from thermal sources. Terefore, the definition of the generation company’s commercial policy is relevant for the proper management of the business. Electricity Transmission The electricity transmission business of Enel Américas is mainly performed through the interconnection line between Argentina and Brazil, Enel Cien, subsidiary of Enel Brasil, whose transport capacity is 2,100 MW. Electricity Distribution The distribution business is conducted through Edesur in Argentina, Ampla and Coelce (owned by Enel Brasil) in Brazil, Codensa in Colombia and Enel Distribución Peru (former Edelnor) in Peru. During 2016, our main distribution subsidiaries sold 62,714 GWh. At present, Edesur, Ampla, Coelce, Codensa and Enel Distribución Peru serve the main cities in Latin America, providing electricity service to more than 14.1 million clients. 158 Enel Américas Annual Report 2016 Argentina Electricity Generation Enel Américas S.A. participates in the electricity generation Participations in installed capacity and in business Groups indirectly through Enel Argentina S.A.’s subsidiaries Enel for 2016 are distributed as follows: Generación Costanera S.A.

In this program, Later, Enel Américas S.A. transferred its entire shareholding 59 projects were awarded for a total of 2,453.5 MW. The in Enel Generación El Chocón S.A., Enel Generación RENOVAR program is included within the context of Law Costanera S.A. nd Central Dock Sud S.A. to Enel Argentina 27,191, which defines a path for the participation in that type S.A. of energy in the market that in 2025 should reach 25%. Costanera, Chocón and CDS own together 4,537 MW of installed capacity. This capacity represented 13.6% of the total capacity in the Argentine SIN (Sistema Interconectado Nacional) by the end of 2016. Electricity generaion of these companies reached on December 31, 2016 a generation of 13.124 GWh, equivalent to 9,6% of the total generacion of Argentina. It should be noted that, among the most important business groups that participates in the Argentine Electricity Market in generation are: AES, SADESA and PAMPA ENERGIA, company that in 2016 acquired PETROBRAS ARGENTINA.
