Energia solar fotovoltaica: análise exploratória dos dados de geração distribuída

Abstract

Photovoltaic solar energy is a source of electrical energy that gained great prominence in recent years due to the energy transition. The objective of this research is to do a market study on solar energy in distributed generation, using the Python language to carry out an exploratory analysis of the electricity generation data made available by ANEEL, using Brazil, the Northeast region (Nordeste) and the state of Alagoas as áreas of reference. The development of this paper uses two types of variables: categorical and a single numerical variable which is the installed power. After exploring the acquired data, it was possible to describe them, identifying as market characteristic the tendency to install small systems and the preference for the use of the same individual and/or legal entity in the Electric Energy Compensation System (CCEE). Therefore, a more detailed description of the photovoltaic solar energy market was obtained, especially with regards to supply, providing society with material that may be relevant in the production of new future studies, business and public policies.
