PL 5829 DG (Brazil): is it good?
PL 5829 DG (Brazil): is it good?
Created to extend the exemption from connection fees to the public grid for many years to come, the bill has a very good chance of being approved and thus maintaining the viability of solar energy.
Solar energy depends on the public grid so that it is possible to buy and sell energy according to the balance of surpluses or shortages of energy on a daily basis.
The public grid involves generation, transmission and distribution requires capital-intensive investments, which need to be made available to those who install solar systems.
For solar systems buyers and sellers, yes, it's great news. And how about the others - the vast majority - who actually pay for this bill?
With the PL 5829, those who do not install solar pay for the the bill (subsidies).
