A ANEEL (National Electric Energy Agency) announced last Tuesday (5), the opening of the Public Call for Priority Energy Efficiency Project nº 003/2020.
The measure aims to receive proposals from distributors interested in presenting solutions for public hospitals or entities that have CEBAS (Certification of Social Assistance Charitable Entities).
According to a survey carried out by the Agency, approximately 4 thousand Brazilian public or certified charitable hospitals have the potential to participate in the priority project.

Energy efficiency projects include diagnosing electrical installations, exchanging air conditioning units and light bulbs for others with lower consumption, and also installing own generation such as photovoltaic solar plants and cogeneration systems.
Energy efficiency project in Santa Casa de Vinhedo (SP)
In 2019, the electricity concessionaire CPFL of Piratininga invested around R$ 450 thousand in the implementation of a photovoltaic energy generation system at the Santa Casa de Vinhedo hospital (SP). The project was financed by the Energy Efficiency Program of ANEEL. In total, 63 380 W solar panels were implemented.

Goodnight! Prof. Hilton Ferreira
I am a postgraduate student in Hospital Architecture, in the development of my TCC I will address Sustainability – Efficient Energy Sources in the hospital area
I would like your help in identifying the NBR that specifically deal with EAS.

Thank you in advance for your attention
For a long time, there has been a decree law from the FHC government that requires public agencies of the indirect and direct administration to implement an internal Energy Conservation Committee (CICE). Since then, I believe that few of these institutions have been aware of the existence of this requirement, in other words, it is just another law that is not enforced, just for show! Today, with the water crisis knocking on our doors, people are turning their attention to the implementation of energy efficiency projects. There are studies that indicate that each real invested in this technological segment returns three reais, therefore, it is unjustifiable shortsightedness not to disseminate the culture of using energy resources with due parsimony. We have a privileged matrix regarding the predominance of renewable energy sources that can be used to complement traditional ones, especially wind and photovoltaic generation. As an example, we can mention that our average available kWh/m² is higher than the maximum of European countries, some of which are leaders in the generation capacity of this source. Technological innovations have been admirably voluminous. There is already research into night-time generation. Which would be revolutionary.
