Quick Glance to Brazilian Electricity Sector by an Egyptian Expert's Eyes

Quick Glance to Brazilian Electricity Sector by an Egyptian Expert's Eyes Background Every now and then, Mr. Rafael Herzberg (consultant energy affairs) posts interesting something about Brazilian Electricity System.

I assume that power systems are look-alike everywhere. Each has a generation subsystem, transmission subsystem, and distribution subsystem. It differs on how to deal with investors, contractors, and consumers. I like to make some comparisons whenever it is applicable to have lessons of success and fail, too.

Really interesting to see your comparisons, Dr. Khashab. Was there anything in particular that stood out in terms of transferrable lessons to be learned, i.e. something the Egyptian power industry does that the Brazilian industry should look to replicate and vice versa?

Hi Matt

Thanks for your words.

The most interesting was the continuous claim of Mr. Rafael HerzBerg about the spot market of electricity and how it is a volatile one. When I went through my investigation I discovered the secret: Brazil has regulated and deregulated electric systems. Egypt as well as Saudi Arabia have regulated systems securing stable electricity tariffs for all consumer types. Although tariffs are subject to modifications year by year.

Utilities and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Year
Excellent article! I am a PG&E customer and get so frustrated with the lack of information and honesty.

Coal may be down but utilities need to begin planning a divestment from natural gas
Natural gas reliably provides reasonably priced and reasonably clean energy with minor needs for land. Renewable energy cannot match these qualities.
