National Electric Energy Agency
The National Electric Energy Agency (ANEEL) is an autonomous entity under special regime (Regulatory Agency), linked to the Ministry of Mines and Energy, based in the Federal District. ANEEL’s purpose is to regulate and supervise the production, transmission, distribution, and commercialization of electric energy, in accordance with legislation and in line with the guidelines and policies of the federal government.
Wind Energy
Wind energy refers to the transformation of wind energy into useful energy; it is a way to obtain renewable and clean energy, as it does not produce pollutants.
Wind consists of a large-scale flow of gases, providing significant variations throughout the year. This movement of air resulting from the irregular heating of the atmosphere by solar radiation can be transformed into useful energy.
Wind energy is renewable, clean, and an alternative to fossil fuels, being permanently available in any region of the world.
