Brazil leads Engie's green hydrogen projects
Brazil will play a relevant role in the strategy of French holding Engie to reach the goal of reaching 4 gigawatts (GW) of global green hydrogen production capacity by 2030. According to the executive vice president of global green hydrogen business development of the group, Raphael Barreau, the country has strong potential to attract projects due to the abundance of water and the good price of energy generated by renewable sources.
Electric energy is used in electrolysis, the process that gives rise to hydrogen. In the case of green hydrogen, the electricity used comes from renewable sources. Barreau, recently selected to occupy the company's division for the segment, will be based in Brazil.
The executive points out that the complementarity between wind, solar and hydroelectric generation in the country guarantees a constant supply of clean energy, which helps to lower the cost of the electrolysis units. “Many companies are looking at the production of green hydrogen for export in Brazil, they are realizing that production here will be much cheaper than in other countries”, he says...

Migração ao Mercado Livre de Energia Fica Ainda Mais Atrativa em 2025, Aponta TR Soluções
Aumento de 9% no custo médio do mercado cativo torna o mercado livre uma opção mais vantajosa para consumidores brasileiros
Os consumidores de energia elétrica que optarem por migrar para o mercado livre em 2025 devem observar benefícios financeiros superiores aos registrados no ano passado. Essa é a conclusão de um estudo da TR Soluções, que projeta um aumento de 9% no custo médio do portfólio de contratos de compra de energia das distribuidoras para o mercado cativo, o chamado Pmix, que deve alcançar R$ 270,00/MWh.
O diretor de Regulação da TR Soluções, Helder Sousa, explica que a alta no Pmix está relacionada, principalmente, à ausência de superávit na Conta Centralizadora dos Recursos de Bandeiras Tarifárias (CCRBT) neste ano. Esse superávit, observado em 2024, trouxe um alívio significativo para as tarifas ao reduzir os custos médios de compra de energia no mercado cativo.
“Sem esse superávit, os custos do Pmix voltam a subir, o que torna o mercado livre ainda mais atrativo para consumidores que buscam maior previsibilidade e economia em seus custos energéticos”, destaca Sousa…

Aneel aprova consulta sobre receitas de distribuidoras e modicidade tarifária
A diretoria colegiada da Agência Nacional de Energia Elétrica (Aneel) aprovou uma consulta pública para coletar subsídios para aprimorar a regulação do setor elétrico que prevê as regas de compartilhamento de receitas. A consulta pública será de 29 de janeiro a 14 de março de 2025.
A proposta apresentada pela agência que irá a consulta pública prevê uma redução do valor auferido para a modicidade tarifária a partir de outras receitas – como os valores obtidos com o compartilhamento de postes para as operadoras de telecomunicações. Isso poderia aumentar o faturamento da distribuidora de energia.
A ideia é que a distribuidora tenha uma receita maior e diminua o repasse para o consumidor (hoje, a modicidade abate parte do valor das contas). Mas isso deve ser feito de maneira gradual, até que a nova atividade remunerada tenha maturidade, e o repasse para o consumidor aumente gradativamente.
"Com esses recursos, as distribuidoras devem servir serviços inovadores. Mas, é importante discutir o percentual de captura de receitas para a modicidade tarifária", disse o presidente da Aneel, Sandoval Feitosa. Fernando Mosna, diretor da agência reguladora, destacou que é importante colocar o que seria inovação. "Isso pode facilitar o processo de onde pode ser usado esses recursos", disse…

Aneel rejeita recurso da Feninfra para retomada de debate dos postes
A diretoria colegiada da Aneel rejeitou o recurso apresentado pela Feninfra, que pedia à agência reguladora a reconsideração da decisão de extinguir, sem deliberação de mérito, o processo referente ao regulamento conjunto com a Anatel para regulamentar as questões dos postes. A decisão já era esperada desde que o relatório foi apresentado junto com a pauta da Aneel. Conforme declarou a este noticiário Vivien Suruagy, presidente da Feninfra, a decisão da Aneel protela a solução de um problema que a própria Aneel reconhece existir e teria a responsabilidade de agir.
A entidade solicitava no recurso que a Aneel reavaliasse ainda um dos dispositivos do regulamento conjunto que estava sendo discutido, para assegurar a corresponsabilidade das empresas de energia quanto aos custos de reordenamento e limpeza dos postes.
Segundo o relator do recurso, diretor Ricardo Lavorato Tili, os dois principais argumentos apresentados pela entidade – o de urgência de regular o tema e a percepção de que o Decreto nº 12.068/2024 do Poder Executivo não modificou o contexto decisório – não possuem fundamentações suficientes para promover uma reavaliação da decisão que extinguiu o processo de regulamento conjunto com a Anatel dos postes…

A Enel anunciou um plano de investimentos para os próximos quatro anos, com investimentos de R$ 7,4 bilhões no Estado do Ceará entre 2025 e 2027 – um aumento de 54% em relação ao plano anterior, que totalizava R$ 4,8 bilhões para o período de 2024 a 2026.
O plano prevê investimentos em toda a área de concessão, para uma melhoria no fornecimento de energia, que tem sido alvo de críticas no estado nordestino e também em outras regiões.
Em julho de 2024, o MP-CE (Ministério Público do Ceará) instaurou um procedimento administrativo para fiscalizar a prestação de serviço da Enel no interior do Estado depois que moradores relataram quedas e oscilações constantes de energia.
Em setembro, depois de análise de indicadores de qualidade divulgados pela ANEEL, o Decon (Programa Estadual de Proteção e Defesa do Consumidor) do MP-CE instaurou um novo procedimento para apurar uma possível piora nos serviços de fornecimento de energia à população cearense.
Em São Paulo, a situação também foi conturbada, com a distribuidora tendo sido notificada pelo Procon-SP em quatro oportunidades desde novembro de 2023 em razão de uma sequência de apagões, sobretudo na capital paulista e região metropolitana…

Energia solar supera carvão pela 1ª vez em produção de eletricidade na EU
A energia solar superou pela primeira vez o carvão na produção de eletricidade na UE (União Europeia) em 2024. Os dados são do relatório do grupo de reflexão sobre energia Ember divulgado nesta quinta-feira (23).
Além disso, a produção de eletricidade a partir do gás derivado pelo quinto ano consecutivo e a produção total de eletricidade de origem fóssil alcançou um nível historicamente baixo,
O que aconteceu?
Quase metade da energia elétrica da UE vem de fontes renováveis. O forte crescimento da energia solar e a recuperação da energia hidrelétrica levaram à cota das energias renováveis para 47% da produção elétrica da UE, destaca o estudo “European Electricity Review”.
A UE economizou 59 bilhões de euros. Sem a capacidade adicional das energias eólica e solar acrescida nos últimos cinco anos, os 27 Estados-membros da UE precisariam importar 92 bilhões de metros cúbicos adicionais de gás e 55 milhões de toneladas de carvão. Queda de importações de combustíveis fósseis para a produção de eletricidade fez com que a UE economizasse o equivalente a R$ 366 bilhões…

Brazil leads Engie's green hydrogen projects
Brazil will play a relevant role in the strategy of French holding Engie to reach the goal of reaching 4 gigawatts (GW) of global green hydrogen production capacity by 2030. According to the executive vice president of global green hydrogen business development of the group, Raphael Barreau, the country has strong potential to attract projects due to the abundance of water and the good price of energy generated by renewable sources.
Electric energy is used in electrolysis, the process that gives rise to hydrogen. In the case of green hydrogen, the electricity used comes from renewable sources. Barreau, recently selected to occupy the company's division for the segment, will be based in Brazil.
The executive points out that the complementarity between wind, solar and hydroelectric generation in the country guarantees a constant supply of clean energy, which helps to lower the cost of the electrolysis units. “Many companies are looking at the production of green hydrogen for export in Brazil, they are realizing that production here will be much cheaper than in other countries”, he says...

Estudo da Schneider Electric aponta caminhos para equilibrar avanço da IA e consumo energético
O debate sobre o consumo de energia da Inteligência Artificial (IA) ganha cada vez mais relevância à medida que a tecnologia se expande. Projeções recentes indicam que a IA pode representar 0,5% do consumo global de eletricidade até 2027, um número aparentemente modesto que esconde uma tendência preocupante.
Outro estudo, da Arm Holdings, conta que até 2030 os data centers do mundo poderão consumir mais eletricidade do que toda a Índia. Nos Estados Unidos, sem melhorias significativas na eficiência, os centros de dados de IA podem chegar a consumir 25% das necessidades energéticas do país até o final da década, um salto expressivo em relação aos atuais 4%.
É neste contexto que o Instituto de Pesquisa em Sustentabilidade da Schneider Electric apresenta um estudo sobre as relações entre IA e transições energéticas. A pesquisa projeta quatro cenários possíveis para o consumo de eletricidade da IA até 2035, oferecendo insights para formuladores de políticas e líderes empresariais…

Itaipu produz mais energia para o Paraguai e reduz fatia ao Brasil
Após registrar a maior geração de energia nos últimos cinco anos em 2023, a Itaipu Binacional fechou o último ano com uma queda na produção de 20% no comparativo anual. A usina hidrelétrica é a maior responsável pelo fornecimento de energia elétrica para os consumidores no Brasil e no Paraguai.
Segundo os dados divulgados pela empresa, a geração de 67 milhões de megawatts-hora (MWh) foi impactada pelas baixas afluências - quantidade de água que chega às usinas - em decorrência da crise hidrológica, provocada pela estimativa que atingiu grande parte das bacias hidrográficas nos dois países. Em 2023, a Itaipu Binacional produziu 82 milhões de megawatts-hora , atendendo a mais de 80% do consumo paraguaio e 10% da demanda brasileira.
Apesar da estimativa, o Paraguai bateu recorde histórico no consumo de energia proveniente de Itaipu, que destinou mais de 20 milhões de MWh ao país vizinho no ano passado, patamar superado pela primeira vez desde a construção da usina binacional . O montante representa mais de 30% da produção anual, o que confirma a tendência de elevação do consumo para o abastecimento de energia gerada por Itaipu…

Ministry of Energy releases study predicting 'technological revolution' in the energy sector
As distribuidoras de energia elétrica, no Brasil, sofrem severamente com perdas de receita que, ano a ano, aumentam gradativamente e levam a consequências absolutamente drásticas. Tanto sob uma perspectiva de furto quanto no que concerne à inadimplência dos consumidores.
Se fosse para fazer um paralelo com uma situação macro, a nível nacional, poder-se-ia dizer que se trata do “Risco Distribuição de Energia”, em analogia com o “Risco Brasil”. Assim como neste, é medida a probabilidade de o país não honrar seus compromissos financeiros internacionais. Naquele, afere-se a probabilidade de os consumidores cumprirem (ou não) suas obrigações no contrato de fornecimento de energia.
Infelizmente, a despeito de todos os elementos que compõem o famigerado Risco Brasil — como fatores creditícios, ambientais, políticos, regulatórios e socioeconômicos —, não seria exagero dizer que o Risco Distribuição de Energia é um indicador ainda mais difícil de ser superado, dada a vasta gama de exemplos de empresas do setor que enfrentam ou já enfrentaram dificuldades financeiras alarmantes…

Brazil leads Engie's green hydrogen projects
Brazil will play a relevant role in the strategy of French holding Engie to reach the goal of reaching 4 gigawatts (GW) of global green hydrogen production capacity by 2030. According to the executive vice president of global green hydrogen business development of the group, Raphael Barreau, the country has strong potential to attract projects due to the abundance of water and the good price of energy generated by renewable sources.
Electric energy is used in electrolysis, the process that gives rise to hydrogen. In the case of green hydrogen, the electricity used comes from renewable sources. Barreau, recently selected to occupy the company's division for the segment, will be based in Brazil.
The executive points out that the complementarity between wind, solar and hydroelectric generation in the country guarantees a constant supply of clean energy, which helps to lower the cost of the electrolysis units. “Many companies are looking at the production of green hydrogen for export in Brazil, they are realizing that production here will be much cheaper than in other countries”, he says...

Ministry of Energy releases study predicting 'technological revolution' in the energy sector
Os descontos oferecidos no mercado livre de energia em relação ao mercado regulado devem se estabilizar em 2025. Na visão de especialistas, o ritmo de migrações do ano passado pode ser freado, pelo grande volume de saídas do ambiente cativo que já ocorreu.
Já a competição entre as comercializadoras deve se intensificar, enquanto as fusões e aquisições podem consolidar os players de maior porte.
Os descontos em relação aos preços praticados pelas distribuidoras de energia elétrica possivelmente se manterão entre 25% e 30%, segundo as projeções da consultoria Envol.
“O preço não deve cair mais. Várias empresas vão tentar, aos poucos, estabilizar suas margens, porque, obviamente, o desconto é relevante, compram para revender, ou então têm portfólio que consegue encaixar a um preço mais alto do que venderia no atacado”, afirmou o CEO da Envol, Alexandre Viana.

Confira o ranking dos 10 maiores consumidores de energia no mundo
O consumo de energia elétrica é um dos principais indicadores do desenvolvimento econômico e da infraestrutura de um país. Dados do Worldometer mostram que os maiores consumidores de energia do mundo representam uma parcela significativa do uso global.
Segundo a empresa de estatística, a China ocupa o primeiro lugar com um consumo de 5,563 TWh (25,5% do total mundial). Entretanto, o consumo per capita do país ainda é relativamente baixo, com 3.963 kWh anuais por habitante, destacando o impacto de sua vasta população.
Os Estados Unidos aparecem em segundo lugar, consumindo 3,902 TWh (17,9% do total mundial). Apesar de ter uma população significativamente menor que a China, o consumo per capita nos EUA é um dos mais altos da lista, atingindo 11.855 kWh por ano, impulsionado por uma forte dependência de energia em setores residenciais, industriais e de transporte.
Com 1,136 TWh (5,2% do total mundial), a Índia ocupa a terceira posição. Apesar do volume expressivo, o consumo per capita é o mais baixo entre os dez primeiros, com apenas 846 kWh anuais, refletindo desigualdades regionais e uma infraestrutura energética ainda em desenvolvimento...
