Abstract(s)
Energy policies have been widely developed in the recent past as sequence of the increasing relevance of distributed energy resources potential in power systems, namely in achieving the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions gaining independence from fossil fuels. Thus, the main factions in the world, as North America and Europe, have been focusing on the implementation of new energy policies capable of managing several types of energy sources considering their decentralized characteristics. In this way, the present work provides an introduction of how the new energy policies, concerning distributed energy resources, are working towards the increase of these resources penetration in the energy mix. Some successful case studies are presented, namely from Europe, to assess the benefits of such policies to consumers, to producers and to energy market as a whole.
