When we talk about massive energy generation by more traditional methods, such as hydroelectric and thermoelectric plants, it is inevitable to think about environmental aspects and the entire chain involved so that the energy generated in a locality is taken to the large consumer centers. Seeking to improve this context, microgrids emerged, which can act in isolation or connected to the National Interconnected System. For consumers, the main advantages are the medium-term savings and the environmental issue. For the distributor, the impacts of microgrids are: Alternatives Alternative 1: Practically non-existent, as current equipment is efficient from an energy point of view and is digitally connected, improving the operation of the network as a whole. Alternative 2: Technical and environmental, as the consumer stops buying energy from the distributor, and the generation and transmission infrastructure becomes obsolete, generating waste for the environment. Alternative 3: Exclusively technical, as the consumer connects the phases and the neutral to the SIN network through micro inverters and this prevents measuring consumption at the ends of the network. Alternative 4: Exclusively financial, as the value of energy from the distributor becomes uncompetitive compared to the value that consumers get by generating their own electricity. Alternative 5: Technical and financial, because at the same time that the consumer stops buying energy from the distributor, the equipment inserts disturbances in the network, requiring greater complexity to manage supply x demand.
