Background

The Brazilian Electricity Regulatory Agency (ANEEL) has recently published regulation 482/12 which revolutionizes the country’s energy market by allowing the trading of energy up to 1MW; a move which paves the way for net-metering and the widespread use of micro and mini RE power plants.

Purpose

To provide each of the 27 AMAPI municipalities with a feasible Municipal Alternative Energy Plan (MAEP) based on local energy sources as an input to local policy-making and as a model for others

Implementor

GVC (Gruppo Volontariato Civile)
