Abstract:
This document intends to address the main issues surrounding the modernization
of the electricity market in Brazil. Like the Brazilian Electric Sector, the
commercialization environments have been reformulated in recent years, allowing greater
flexibility and optimization of energy costs. In addition to the general picture of the
energy market, the work demonstrates the fundamental procedures for joining the Free
Contracting Environment, modalities, agents and contracts. Finally, there is an
introduction to the study of the derivatives market in the free market, as a way of
encouraging attention to this financial market instrument that is expanding, and allows an
optimization in the strategies of cost reduction and increase in profits through operations
of hedge and speculation.
