The Project Proposal Is by Deputy Roberto de Lucena and Aims to Improve the Environment for the Development of Clean Energy

The bill nº 254/21 stipulates that small power plants using renewable resources can have a discount of 50% or 70% off the electricity price from the transmission and distribution grid. The proposal is from Deputy Roberto de Lucena, and if approved, the new percentage will apply to small hydropower plants, solar plants, wind farms, geothermal, ocean, and biomass sources.

The text awaits consideration in the Chamber of Deputies. Currently, the minimum discount on TUST (Transmission Services Usage Tariff) and TUSD (Distribution Services Usage Tariff) – which are fees paid for purchasing electricity directly from trading or generation agents in the free market, is 50%. The text also proposes establishing regional targets for small distributed generation to participate in the supply in the self-sufficiency market and provide simplified licenses for small electricity generation projects.

Deputy Rodrigo Lucena (PODE-SP) stated that the goal of the stimulus measures is to improve the environment for renewable energy generation and distributed generation, in which consumers produce their own electricity.

Renewable Sources:

The sources that belong to this group are considered inexhaustible, as their quantities are continually renewed when used. Examples of renewable sources include hydropower, solar, wind, biomass (organic matter), geothermal (from within the Earth), ocean (from tides and waves), and hydrogen (the chemistry of the hydrogen molecule).

Advancement in renewable energy: A R$ 150 million project launched by Petrobras and Finep aims to create state-of-the-art electrolyzers for green hydrogen, strengthening national research and preparing Brazil to compete in a billion-dollar energy market.

Illiterate or semi-literate grandmothers were trained to repair solar systems, open rural workshops, and light up homes that still depended on kerosene.

The world has bet on green hydrogen as the fuel of the future, but now faces the side effect: producing 1 kilogram requires about 9 liters of ultrapure water, and the largest projects on the planet are precisely in the driest regions of the Earth, where water is already scarce for people.

Africa has about 500,000 cell towers and most still burn diesel to operate, while companies rush to cover antennas with solar energy and avoid signal blackouts.

Farmers swapped diesel for solar panels in Pakistan, powered irrigation pumps almost cost-free, expanded rice fields, and now groundwater has become a red alert in the countryside.
