Após meses de escassez hídrica que pesaram sobre as contas de luz dos brasileiros, a natureza e a gestão energética encontraram um equilíbrio temporário. O operador nacional do sistema elétrico anunciou em abril de 2022 que a bandeira verde permaneceria vigente até o fim do ano, poupando consumidores de sobretaxas que chegaram a R$14,20 por 100 kWh. É um momento de alívio construído sobre chuvas generosas e reservatórios restaurados — um lembrete de que, num país onde dois terços da eletricidade nascem dos rios, o clima ainda governa a economia.
