Abstract:
Access to the network by the National Electric System Operator (ONS) refers to the ability of electrical energy generators, distributors and other agents in the electrical sector to connect their facilities to the energy transmission network managed and operated by the ONS. Access is essential for different actors in the electricity sector to supply, transmit and distribute electricity effectively and safely. This work seeks to deepen the understanding of access to the electricity transmission network in Brazil, exploring the key aspects that shape this access, from the processes that need to be carried out to the studies necessary to request access to the network. The way in which generating units connect to the grid can affect the stability of the electrical system, therefore, studies carried out by the ONS ensure that the integration of generating plants is done in a way that maintains the stability and security of the grid, and avoids interruptions in the Energy supply. For a better understanding, a case study will be presented, taken from a course conclusion work, with some of the studies necessary during the process of requesting access to the network, which define whether the installation of the plant is viable at that connection point.
