Abstract:
In 20XX, the Brazilian National Electric Energy Agency proposed that the cost of accessing the electrical grid should be shared among all consumers. This would do away with cross-subsidies, where normal consumers without installed solar distributed generation (DG) units effectively cover the costs of access to the grid for consumers with DG units. The economic viability of the two scenarios were compared, one before and the other after the proposed changes, to understand how this legislature will affect the viability of DG projects. This was achieved by studying all five geographic regions covering the entire Brazilian territory by analyzing data on average solar radiation, demand, and energy prices.
