“…In the year 2000, wind energy had the record of contributing 0.1% of the installed electricity capacity in our country. However, by 2018, we reached 9% (Soares et al, 2021). Such analysis becomes more straightforward given the graph above and by indicating that Brazil appears as the South American protagonist in this type of technology because it is the only country in this scenario to have patent families protected by the National Institute of Industrial Property -INPI.…”

Objective of the study: To investigate through technological prospecting patents in the generation of wind energy within urban environments, aiming to generate new options for the transition of electrical energy through a clean and sustainable matrix, meeting concepts of smart cities.Methodology: The study was carried out in a relevant patent base, such as in journals, observing the volume of patents in the technological area of interest in an exploratory nature, with a prospective objective, for an evaluation in technological intelligence.Main results: In the volume of technologies for wind power generation, which are possible within urban areas, there is a quantitative yet reduced amount of possible generators for use in urban areas, contrasted to traditional technologies already explored, able to meet the objective of the study, which is to identify opportunities for the transition of electric power through a clean and sustainable matrix, meeting concepts of smart cities, generating new business models and therefore in unfolding new developments.Theoretical/methodological contributions: It contributes with studies based on technological intelligence that generate opportunities for a deeper analysis of available technologies for this replacement in our energy matrix since Brazil is a protagonist in Latin America in wind power generation.Contributions of the association/management: This research contributes to the study and use of new opportunities for wind power generation within urban areas with lower socio-environmental impact and business generation in a domestic environment.

“…Nos últimos anos, assim como no mundo todo, a matriz energética brasileira obteve maior participação das fontes sustentáveis e de geração distribuída (SOARES et al, 2021) Além disso, ao comparar a energia eólica onshore e offshore, a segunda é 1,5 vezes mais cara, por Megawatt (MW), do que a primeira. Isso porque os equipamentos especializados para projeto ocorre no Complexo Eólico Marítimo Águas Claras, no Rio Grande do Sul com 3 GW de produção (FERREIRA, 2020;GONZÁLEZ et al, 2020).…”

“…O Brasil é reconhecido pelo histórico de crescimento de energias não fósseis, sendo meta que até metade da matriz energética, em 2040, seja deste tipo(ENERGY OUTLOOK, 2019). Em 2017, as matrizes eólica, hídrica e de biomassa representaram 43% da matriz energética total, além disso, contribuíram 80% no fornecimento elétrico(IEA, 2019).No Brasil, a crise energética dos anos 2000 resultaram em uma série de políticas públicas com foco no aumento da relevância da matriz eólica no país(SOARES et al, 2021).O Brasil aumentou a capacidade energética eólica instalada de 0,1% para 9% de 2000 a 2018, sendo a energia eólica responsável por 40% do consumo total na região Nordeste (EPE, 2019).…”

“…Assim, os grupos econômicos que englobam o setor eólico possibilitaram a consolidação do mercado(SOARES et al, 2021). O país tem sido um mercado bem-sucedido de implantação e instalação da energia eólica onshore (REGO & RIBEIRO, 2018).Ao comparar a energia eólica onshore e offshore, ambas possuem vantagens de serem limpas, renováveis, com ampla capacidade de distribuição e funcionamento(ZHENG et al, 2016).…”

“…In recent years, the electricity sector has undergone major transformations, often referred to as the "energy transition". There is an increasing role for variable renewable energy resources and for distributed demand-side services, as well as a strong incentive for net-zero scenarios [5]. Therefore, policy makers are responsible for ensuring that long-term energy targets are achieved without compromising the system's reliability and safety, and that the long-term costs of the energy transition are appropriately assessed [6].…”

In recent years electricity sectors worldwide have undergone major transformations, referred to as the “energy transition”. This has required energy planning to quickly adapt to provide useful inputs to the regulation activity so that a cost-effective electricity market emerges to facilitate the integration of renewables. This paper analyzes the role of system planning and regulations on two specific elements in the energy market design: the concept of firm capacity and the presence of distributed energy resources, both of which can be influenced by regulation. We assess the total cost of different regulatory mechanisms in the Brazilian and Mexican systems using optimization tools to determine optimal long-term expansion for a given regulatory framework. In particular, we quantitatively analyze the role of the current regulation in the total cost of these two electricity systems when compared to a reference “efficient” energy planning scenario that adopts standard cost-minimization principles and that is well suited to the most relevant features of the new energy transformation scenario. We show that two very common features of regulatory designs that can lead to distortions are: (i) renewables commonly having a lower “perceived cost” under the current regulations, either due to direct incentives such as tax breaks or due to indirect access to more attractive contracts or financing conditions; and (ii) requirements for reliability are often defined more conservatively than they should be, overstating the hardships imposed by renewable generation on the existing system and underestimating their potential to form portfolios.
