Analysis of the Financial Viability of a Photovoltaic System to a Consumer Unit in South Brazil

ABSTRACT The photovoltaic solar energy is a renewable energy source that is growing in the Brazilian energy scenario, mainly after the approval of Normative Resolution (REN) n° 482/2012 of the Brazilian Regulatory Agency (ANEEL). This REN establishes the general conditions of micro and mini-generati...
