Technology allows access to the Internet using energy and creating customized packages as spending every home
Today every telecom operator offers customized packages for each type of customer, charging different rates according to your profile, time of use and adherence to complementary services. In the Brazilian power this type of facility is not yet widely available, but now there are specific instances of deployment and testing being conducted in several regions, including Santa Catarina. This means that in a not too distant future, consumers may access the Internet through the grid to measure their consumption of light in real time and, later, the trend is that they can also customize their packages in use in accordance what is most convenient - all in the name of economy.
"Today the power is a commodity no color or smell, which we only have information when the bill arrives at the end of the month. As soon as information is added to this product, it changes the quality of consumption and is expected to change the price too, "says the president of the Company Proprietary Infrastructure and private telecommunications systems (Lacroix), Pedro Jatoba . He believes that after the implementation of electronic measuring the energy can be "labeled" for both the source and for consumption: the consumer can take home a flag staff and purchase energy from renewable sources, for example, or may buy a basic package of energy to fuel their major appliances, and acquire extra energy - no discount - for air conditioning in summer. "They are just possibilities," says Jatoba. But from the moment the energy distributor to read the information, detect the type of consumption and abuse can cut out of the contract, the potential for new uses will grow exponentially.
As the measurement electronics is already used in several countries and tests are already being made in Brazil, he says that new regulation of the sector is urgent. "Every day that passes increases the risk of having a disorganized sector laws. Our goal is that you can make the best of the new system at the national level, "he says. Jatoba According to Lacroix is working for the government - in partnership with the Brazilian Association of Electricity Distributors (Abradee) - a planning project of the new system "that regulation is not spontaneous and disorganized." "The discussions on the new electrical system will be of equal or greater magnitude than occurred during the standard-definition digital television system," argues.
The deadline for implementing the system at the national level is estimated at ten years, taking into account that Brazil has 60 million meters of electric energy consumption. "It's a great opportunity to develop the domestic industry, especially considering that there are another 60 million in Latin America, where Brazil is well placed to export the technology developed." Parameter used to estimate the time Singapore is Italy, which has 30 million points of reading and took four years to implement the electronic system of measurement.
In addition to theft
Most of the tests of remote electronic measurement in Brazil still has immediate economic purposes because it reduces or even eliminates the theft of energy, the popular "cat". However, according Jatoba, more developed countries - who have no problem with thefts - are more focused on the optimal management of electricity and the features it offers. The mere fact that the president of the United States Barack Obama have put the energy management between the bases of the government, according to him, will speed the worldwide development of technologies for this purpose.
Today in Brazil the electrical system complies with virtually the same logic when power was discovered, a source of production (generation) apart, connected by transmission lines to consumers. The system "smart grid", as is being currently called, rises to power generation sources also small, hitherto unimaginable: the solar panels of a residence, for example, contribute to other houses in the same neighborhood at odd moments . "In the cities, small wind farms and even electric hybrid car can be decentralized sources of energy, while Small Hydro Power (SHP) can fulfill this function in the field," said Jatoba.
Since the Internet over powerline, which he gained when presented as the future of the web, it's a niche apart from all this, and second Jatoba is an opportunity to democratize communication. "The grid now reaches 98% of Brazilian homes. The Public Switched Telephone Network, which offers internet, is the second largest, present in 50% of homes. If I force myself to universalize the new energy system, I'm getting there 48% in those where there is no alternative or competition to have telephone, data or television. I democratizing information, "he said.
