What happened
Argentina's Congress passed the Energy Measures Law, which permits power suppliers Edenor and Edesur to cancel old debts owed to the wholesale power market. Cabinet figures estimate these two firms' debts at approximately US$781 million, which is part of a larger US$1.842 billion owed by distributors nationwide. The law was formally approved by the Senate and the Chamber of Deputies.
