Solar energy sector feels frustrated and Aneel's suggestion will remain in public consultation, but sector institutions have already declared themselves against
Aneel (National Electric Energy Agency) has sent for public consultation a measure that will tax the amount of solar energy that consumers produce in their homes from solar panels. Energy from the winds receiving many investments, see here!
The measure is a shower of cold water in the solar energy sector, which, through the Brazilian Association of Solar Photovoltaic Energy (Absolar), estimates that the rate increases by 68% the part that is sent to the distributor.
Currently, residential consumers have almost 100% of the energy they send back to the grid as credit for their electricity bill and, according to the president of Absolar, Rodrigo Sauaia, the change, if confirmed, means a great disincentive to the installation of systems of the type .

Even with the adoption of a transition period, until 2030, for those who install solar panels before the change in the rule, the measure is very bad for those who invested in the installations in the expectation of return taking into account a longer term. “From the point of view of legal and regulatory security, it is a terrible change”, added the president of Absolar.
Public consultation
The deadline for public consultation is 45 days and Absolar will ask for its extension so that the matter can be better discussed with society.
The intention of the Aneel is to offset the investments made in infrastructure by the energy distribution company.
For the director of consultancy and research company Greener, Marcio Takata, the measure needs to be better debated before being issued and cannot be a disincentive to solar energy that is generated in homes, not only on the financial side, but above all for be a clean source.
“The big point of concern is that the reduction in the value of credit was large, in a short-term scenario. It brings a change and a very big impact to the attractiveness of the installations and projects”, he declared. Source: Aneel
