Consumers adopt DG as a cost reduction option
Since April 2012 (ANEEL Normative Resolution No. 482/2012), Brazilian consumers have been able to choose to generate their own energy or participate in structures to do so, including supplying their surplus to the local distribution network. This is Distributed Generation (DG), known under regulation as Microgeneration and Minigeneration of Distributed Electric Energy (MMGD), and the Net Metering System (SCEE). These rules have evolved over time, notably after the issuance of Normative Resolution No. 1,059/2023, consolidating provisions related to MMGD and SCEE in the general conditions for energy supply (Normative Resolution No. 1,000/2021).
In practice, there are heated discussions about the benefits of DG for the system and how costs are allocated among consumers who do not adopt this option. From a market perspective, these are analyses that consumers and investors should undertake, recognizing that DG can already be considered a significant source in Brazil’s installed capacity matrix.
