Abstract :
The connection of generating sources in the distribution systems is on the increase worldwide. If on one hand this practice brings well-known benefits for the system, on the other, there are several institutional barriers that make difficult its feasibility. This way, the Brazilian National Electric Energy Agency (ANEEL) has developed the so called “Distribution Procedures”, which is a set of rules to govern the distribution energy systems access. This paper presents the policy observed during its development and the expected results with its implementation.
