A ANEEL (National Electric Energy Agency) approved this Tuesday (3) the creation of an experimental regulatory environment, called a regulatory sandbox, for the project “Efficient Integration of Distributed Energy Resources”, to be conducted by the concessionaire Equatorial Alagoas.
The initiative aims to develop, field-test, and evaluate smart tariff structures capable of coordinating, in a measurable and efficient manner, the simultaneous use of distributed generation (DG) photovoltaics, energy storage, and... electric vehicles, in a low-voltage environment.
The project will be implemented in the municipalities of Maceió and Marechal Deodoro, involving 400 consumer units, selected by random sampling. The sample includes residential, commercial, and public service consumers, both with and without participation in the SCEE (Electric Energy Compensation System).
The total execution time will be 22 months, with 14 months dedicated to the field phase, starting in February 2026 and concluding in November 2027. From an economic standpoint, the project will have a total budget of R$ 4,29 million.
A ANEEL The Agency highlighted in a press release that the proposal "prioritizes the principle of cost causality, addresses the growing challenges of electric mobility, constitutes the first regulatory experiment involving V2G technology in the country, and directly contributes to improving the role of the Distribution System Operator."
