10s consumidores con tarifa comercial e industrial
cuya carga instalada sea mayor de 10 kW para 10s in-
dustriales y el consumo mayor que 2.500 kWh por
mes para 10s comerciantes. Esta imposition se
justifica en el hecho de que 10s abonados industriales
y comerciales utilizan la energia electrica para la
obtencidn de ganancias, elaboration de productos
cuyo mayor consumo se halla en las zonas urbanas y
es justo contribuir por ese intermedio al desarrollo de
la electrification rural.
Una proyeccion de la recaudacion que podrfa
significar esta contribution para 10s anos 1980, 1981
y 1982 son 10s siguientes, divididos en lo que podtia
recaudarse a traves de las dos empresas mayores de1
pais (QUITO Y GUAYAQUIL) y el resto de1 pais:

Mediante la creation de1 llamado “Fond0 Especial
para Conexiones a Consumidores de Bajos Ingresos”,
que se alimenta con recursos provenientes de un
diferencial de inter& de prestamos externos
otorgados en condiciones concesionarias por en-
tidades financieras de desarrollo tales coma el (BID),
el Kredit Anstalt Bank fuer Wiederaufbau de
Alemania Federal, Gobiernos, etc. y que se produce
cuando estos prestamos, suscritos con el Gobierno de1
Ecuador, son transferidos a BJECEL en condiciones
de inter& un poco mas alto y plazo de amortization
m&s corto, creando un fondo que basicamente puede
trabajar coma una fuente de prestamos, para la
financiacion de redes de distribution secundarias y
acometidas de servicio electrico en zonas rurales y
urbanas marginadas, e instalaciones de alumbrado
public0 en esas mismas zonas; 10s prestamos de ese
fondo seran hechos a las Empresas Electricas, pero
no parece existir conflict0 en otorgarlos tambien a
otro tipo de entes administrativos que podrian
establecerse para la operation de estos sistemas
decentralizados de abastecimiento de energia. A su
vez, estas Empresas y entes administrativos pueden
otorgar prestamos a 10s mismos consumidores de ba-
jos ingresos, para ay-udarlos a financiar el costo de
las acometidas en las casa y eventualmente las
instalaciones interiores. Para el manejo de este fondo
y el otorgamiento de 10s prestamos existe un
reglamento especial.

10 per cent of the invoiced value of electrical
bills for commercial and industrial consumers
with an installed load greater than 10 kW for in-
dustrial clients and a monthly consumption
greater than 2,500 kWh for commercial clients.
This tax is justified by the fact that the industrial
and commercial clients titilize electric power to
derive profits from processing goods largely con-
sumed in urban areas and it is just, therefore,
that they should contribute in this way to the
development of rural electrification.
It is projected that for the years 1980, 1981 and
1982, this contribution could reach the amounts
given below, broken down for the two main elec-
trical enterprises in the country (Quito and
Guayaquil) and the remainder of the country (in

With the creation of the so-called “Special
Fund for Connections for Low Income Con-
sumers”, supplied with resources coming from
an interest differential of external loans granted
under concessionary terms by financial develop-
ment organizations such as the IDB, the Kredit
Anstalt Bank fuer Wiederaufbau, of the Federai
Republic of Germany, other governments, etc.
The differential occurs when these loans,
subscribed by the Government of Ecuador, are
transfered to I~vECEL at a slightly higher interest
rate and a slightly shorter repayment term, thus
creating a fund that basically can serve as a
source of loans for financing secondary distribu-
tion networks and connections for electrical ser-
vice in rural and marginal urban areas and for the
installation of public lighting systems in these
same areas. The loans from such a fund will be
made to Electric Power Enterprises, but there ap-
pears to be no conflict in also granting loans to
other hypes of administrative organizations which
may be established for the operation of these
decentralized power supply systems. In turn,
these enterprises and administrative organiza-
tions may grant loans to low-income consumers
to help them finance the cost of electrical con-
nections to their homes and eventually of interior
installations. There is a special set of regulations
