Abstract

Resumen: Las reformas de los noventa introdujeron cambios institucionales y metodológicos en la regulación tarifaria para los servicios de electricidad y acueducto en Colombia. Este artículo, además de resenar dichos cambios, evalúa el bienestar a través de un contrafactual y el cálculo de la variación equivalente. Con el contrafactual se analiza cómo hubiese sido la evolución tarifaria de no haberse presentado la reforma de los noventas, mientras que con la variación equivalente se establece el cambio del bienestar de los consumidores. Para el cálculo de la variación equivalente se estiman las elasticidades precio y gasto para dichos servicios mediante el Sistema Casi Ideal de Demanda. En general, se concluye que la regulación generó una pérdida en el bienestar de los consumidores.
