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).

Renewable Sources:

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

A British company has installed in the middle of the ocean the world’s first floating platform that generates electricity 24 hours a day from the temperature difference between the surface and the depths of the Atlantic, without relying on wind or sun.

China is building an artificial island in the middle of the sea, covering 20 km², to construct the largest offshore airport in the world, the Dalian Jinzhouwan. This $4.3 billion project is anchored on more than 3,000 pillars embedded in the rock beneath the ocean and is scheduled to open in 2035.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

A robot named Walter does the work of five bricklayers per hour and can save the construction industry, where the average age of professionals is 46 years and almost no one wants to learn the trade anymore, in the United Kingdom.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

The James Webb telescope spotted a planet 700 light-years from Earth with mornings full of sand clouds and nights with clear skies, the temperature difference between the two hemispheres reaches an impressive 170 degrees.

Again the Chinese: China becomes the first country to mass-produce the world’s strongest carbon fiber

Renault 4 electric gets Plein Sud version with a fabric roof that opens 92 cm, starting at €37,290 and featuring 28 driving assistants in a nostalgic bid to drive in the open air without sacrificing interior space.

A giant printer called the “Ferrari” of concrete has landed in Latin America and can already build a 120-square-meter house in just 48 hours, making the traditional construction site look like something from the last century.

MIT prototype uses AI, camera, and electrical muscle stimulation to help a person draw, play simple notes, and perform technical gestures with their hand.

An “invisible” plant can transform rivers meeting the sea into electricity 24 hours a day: French startup uses nanotechnology to extract energy from the salt difference between fresh and saltwater, without sun, wind, dam, or fuel.

Scientists develop a low-cost alternative to generate green hydrogen on a large scale using an innovative chemical process; discovery could revolutionize energy infrastructure, heavy industry, and sustainable transportation systems around the world.

Forget common renewable energy: HydroWing prepares a 10 MW project in Indonesia to transform ocean currents into predictable electricity, using turbines installed on the seabed in a region where the funnel effect between islands increases tidal potential.

The world could operate on clean electricity by 2050, but a study indicates that this would require up to 20 TW of renewable energy, more than 9 million hectares for solar, and strong cooperation between countries.
