Abstract:
The development of new technologies and maturing of rules, norms and laws refer-ring to the electricity sector have been in constant evolution since the beginning of its conception. Over the years, the emergence of new energy solutions, as well as im-provements in the power sector regulation, have provided the system's growth in a sustainable way. In this context, when considering the possible energy solutions and optimizations, this dissertation seeks to explore the options for electricity consump-tion at the Federal University of Itajubá - UNIFEI, to present the most sustainable model and that seeks to better apply the power and market solutions. The cases evaluated will verify the use of Photovoltaic Solar Generation and/or Energy Storage, as well as the transition between the Regulated Contracting Environment - ACR and the Free Contracting Environment - ACL.
