It becomes essential for Brazil the formation of critical mass and technological base in the microgrid subject and, mainly, the creation of an infrastructure that allows the accomplishment of research in this area of knowledge. Faced with this necessity, it was verified the viability of implementing a laboratory to perform analysis of microgrids systems in the actual premises of the Laboratory of Automation and Simulation of Electrical Systems, which is allocated in Itaipu Technological Park Foundation-Brazil dependencies. In the presented context, this work brings the description of the provisioned infrastructurewhose the main feature will be to add flexibility of analysis through the joint application of real, emulated elements and realtime simulation platform, being at the same level of international reference laboratories as well as the fundamental aspects that provides the basis for your design and the possibilities of research envisaged from its implementation. The joint action of several researchers and enterprises will be stimulated and characterized as fundamental role for the transformation of this laboratory into a national reference in the study of microgrids serving as support for the electrical sector for the complete understanding of the new development trends of the future electrical power.
