Photovoltaic solar energy has experienced rapid growth in recent years in Brazil. Given the increase in the number of consumers producing their own energy with photovoltaic systems, concessionaires have asked the ANEEL (National Electric Energy Agency) the discussion of the rules governing the distributed generation of electric energy sector, notably the agency's resolutions 482 and 687. The discussions, which have already begun through meetings and public consultations, seek new models so that after 2020 consumers will be required to pay compensation to electric energy distributors.
Through public consultation with the population and the market, ANEEL intends to review the regulation of the distributed generation sector, reducing the attractiveness of self-generation for the common consumer, with the aim of mitigating the alleged losses that electricity distributors have suffered with the growth in the use of distributed generation with photovoltaic systems and solar plants.
After discussions, the new rules will apply to new consumers, who have their solar energy systems installed after the publication of the new regulation, which should occur in 2020.
