Replies

Wanted by the report, the cemig claimed that he “continues making connections normally, following the regulations of ANEEL, which points to the need for analysis on possible inversion of the power flow in these connections”, highlighted the company, in a note.

According to the company, when “the inversion of flow is detected, the ANEEL determines the adoption of specific procedures, for the benefit of all energy consumers, which is fully complied with by Cemig”, the note highlighted.

  1. Good afternoon, from what I know I think that Solar Energy is very important, it should reach everyone, saving on the electricity bill.

  2. In the state of São Paulo, the same thing is happening with FL, difficulties and bureaucracy to prevent the approval of projects because it also sells solar energy to the population, approving the projects sold by it without any bureaucracy.

  3. Cemig is rubbish. There, i said it. You only think about it and there are abusive tariffs on your electricity bills…

  4. The claim of flow reversal is a scam. I had a 2 kW project with a claim of flow reversal. As? The energy from this micro plant doesn't go beyond the corner and hundreds of neighbors in the surrounding area don't have a on their roof.

  5. The supervisory bodies and this ANEEL It's a shame, it does nothing to speed up Brazil's development, always defending the interests of the concessionaires
