ONS conducted and created working groups to develop specific evaluation studies of the supply conditions and proposed a solutions to the problems identified in the implementation of the works necessary to ensure the power supply to the states of the federation within the timelines established in the concession contracts. These groups include the participation of MME, ANEEL, EPE, State Departments of Energy and Environment, Institute of Historical and Artistic Heritage (IPHAN) and transmission and distribution companies involved.

The expansion of the discussions with the participation of all public and private institutions involved has allowed better a solution to the problems that hinder or even prevent compliance with the schedules of the projects. The ten Working Groups that include the states of Rio Grande do Sul, São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Espirito Santo, Goiás / Brasília, Bahia / Sergipe, Alagoas / Pernambuco / Paraíba / Rio Grande do Norte, Ceará / Piauí and Pará / Maranhão / Tocantins were continued in 2012. Actions and steps were defined to accelerate the environmental licensing, especially at the state level, and the implementation of deployment schedule of the works already defined, in order to identify the studies required to define the operative measures necessary to mitigate the effects of delays in schedules of works, until the structural works are completed. The effectiveness of these actions represented a significant progress for solving the supply to these states.
