Brazil is a pioneer in low-carbon electricity, and renewable energy continues to grow rapidly there. However, the gradual saturation of the transmission grid, particularly in the Nordeste, is pushing developers to consider smaller projects connected to the distribution grid. But how can you prospect efficiently and prioritize the sites that are easiest to connect?
This is the question Grid Capacity answers, now available on the Brazilian distribution grid.
The goal is simple: enable developers to assess the feasibility of a grid connection themselves, without waiting for the distribuidora’s study. In just a few minutes, they can view the hosting capacity of medium-voltage networks, simulate the connection of their installation, identify voltage or current constraints, and estimate the length of lines to be built and reinforced for each option.
This is no leap into the unknown. Grid Capacity was first proven on the French grid, one of the largest in Europe, where it now supports around fifty renewable energy developers. This is the experience we are bringing to Brazil.
