This Decree creates the National Programme for Universal Access to and Use of Electric Energy in the Legal Amazon, so called "More Light for the Amazon" (Mais Luz para a Amazônia) with the purpose of providing electricity to the Brazilian population living in remote regions of the Legal Amazon. The beneficiaries of the Programme are families and their socioeconomic support units as well as other consumer units located in the following areas: remote regions of the Legal Amazon that have not yet had access to the public electricity service; and remote regions of the Legal Amazon that have non-renewable electricity source generation. The priorities for the service are: low-income families enrolled in the Federal Government's Registry for Social Programmes; families benefiting from federal, state or municipal government programmes that aim at social and economic development; rural settlements, indigenous communities, quilombola territories and other communities located in extractive reserves or directly impacted by electricity generation or transmission; schools, health posts and community water wells; and families residing in conservation units.
