Estudo revela aumento da adoção de energia solar e eólica no Brasil e declínio na utilização de combustíveis fósseis.

Brazilian Energy Transition: increase in solar and wind energy generation and reduction in the use of fossil fuels

A recent study points out that Brazil has made significant progress in adopting solar and wind energy, reducing the use of fossil fuels in electricity generation. The survey reveals that renewable energies represent 12% and 3% of the country's energy matrix, contributing to a drop in CO2 emissions in the sector. With the energy transition in full swing, Brazil is leading the way towards a cleaner and more sustainable energy future.

Um ano do Marco Legal da Geração Distribuída

One year of the Distributed Generation Legal Framework: what has changed?

The Legal Framework for Distributed Generation, instituted by Law No. 14,300 of 2022, completed one year of validity on January 6, 2023. Through the regulation of distributed generation, which has become an important source of renewable energy, its objective main objective was to encourage the development of projects of this type in the country. The new rule determines that those who manufacture their own energy will pay the distribution tariff, which does not happen today when they use grid energy.
