“…A única política de incentivo para a geração distribuída, considerando micro e minigeração, é por meio da compensação de energia por fontes fotovoltaicas, que é convertida em créditos, mas tal estratégia pode não viabilizar o investimento aplicado na aquisição de tecnologias renováveis. De acordo Pica et al (2015), o país deve lidar com as dificuldades de regulamentação, implementando políticas já adotadas em outros países, como na Alemanha que utiliza a política de Feed in Tarif, na qual a concessionária compra a energia produzida por fontes renováveis. Além disso, problemas de otimização que atendam plenamente a realidade brasileira em relação à demanda de energia, água quente e gás para cozimento de alimentos ainda não foram contempladas na literatura, bem como a avaliação dos impactos socioeconômicos em virtude da implantação de microrredes.…”

“…• The cost of distribution services established by the utility and additional costs associated with connecting to the grid; • Streamlining these factors in conjunction with existing tariff and billing structures is a regulatory challenge. In a microgrid project several cost categories need to be addressed [14]- [17]. The first is the cost of engineering studies that are required to interconnect significant amounts of distributed energy resources to the distribution grid.…”

This work presents a detailed view on how the current policy scenario for the electricity sector in Brazil is prepared to absorb the concept of microgrids in both its technical and commercial scope. The main focus is on how we can move towards consistent and fair regulation in which all parties involved in the distributed generation sector are satisfied with their duties and rights. The current regulation framework does not explicitly tackle microgrids, but allows them to be connected into the distribution grid. However, the adoption of microgrids could be wider and fairer for their stakeholders through deeper technical understanding and consequent proposals for improvements to that regulation. Based on the assumption that the concept of microgrids has benefits for the environment and society, the intention of this work is to contribute to policy analysis that serve to leverage the insertion of microgrids in the context of the Brazilian energy sector. Thus, our main objective is that stakeholders are able to guide themselves and find proper implementation of their projects and realize the technical, societal and commercial benefits. The focus of the article is limited to microgrids inserted within the coverage area of distribution utilities. Therefore, the power grid is available to the connection, as long as it is operational. Nevertheless, the possibilities of islanded operation are explored. More than the availability of the grid under normal operation conditions, raising levels of interaction and cooperation for mutual gain and how the grid-microgrid relationship could be improved is the main focus. Finally, numerical simulations with the analysis of an actual deployment of a microgrid in a residential condominium in Brazil are used to illustrate the impacts of the proposals.

“…The implementation of small-distributed generation arrays with energy resources that provide supply autonomy, called microgrid, has been widely promoted by the governments of several countries, especially in Europe, to mitigate the greenhouse effect. In Brazil, the regulatory frameworks of distributed generation are beginning to be established [24], [25].…”

This work presents a review on the OLE FOR PROCESS CONTROL-UNIFIED ARCHITECTURE OPC-UA framework and standards aiming to use OPC-UA in SmartGrids applications. The support for Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and native security implementation of the OPC-UA are analyzed as an option to supervise and control small Microgrids, like microgeneration farm in Green Datacenters. Based in these features a communication model based on OPC-UA framework was proposed. The main contribution of this work is a performance evaluation of the OPC-UA transmission time between Microgrids devices (electrical converters and inverters, power meters and controllers) and the comparison with IEC 1646 and IEC 61850 standards requirements.
