On July 24, FGV Energy will hold a webinar called “Opportunities and Challenges for Demand Response Expansion in the Brazilian Power Sector.” The event will feature sector experts and it will be broadcast live on FGV’s YouTube channel, starting at 6:30 pm.

The digitalization of the electricity sector, combined with the rapid expansion of uncontrollable renewable sources, makes demand management an important instrument for improving operating conditions and optimizing assets.

In this context, consumers’ response to economic signals (demand response) is a key distributed energy tool for overcoming the system’s new operational challenges.

FGV Energy has invited some heavyweight guests to discuss the opportunities and challenges for demand response programs in the Brazilian power sector. The webinar will feature Efrain Cruz, of the National Electricity Regulatory Agency (ANEEL); Fillipe Soares, of the Brazilian Association of Large Industrial Power Consumers (ABRACE); Luiz Augusto Barroso, of PSR; Rosana Santos, of ENEL; Sinval Zaidan Gama, of the National System Operator; and Thiago Barral, of the government’s Energy Research Company (EPE).
