One of Neoenergia's commitments is to modernize and automate the electricity grid in the country's capital. The deployment of a technology, unprecedented in the Federal District, until the time the distributor took over the concession in March 2021, has helped to reduce power outages, in addition to reducing the time that Brazilians are left without electricity. Last year alone, the operation of the so-called self-healing scheme prevented approximately 550 interruptions, benefiting more than 1 million people. The average time spent running out of energy for Brazilians was also reduced by 1 hour
.
The self-healing technology is designed so that equipment called automatic retractors identify the defect and restore energy or transfer the client to another network, without human intervention and in seconds. “Some customers only notice the 'spike' once it is being reconnected or transferred to another circuit of the electrical grid without defects,” explains Antônio Carlos Queiroz, Technical Superintendent Director of Neoenergia Brasília. “Thus, fewer customers are affected during a network incident and the average interruption time is reduced, since the occurrence is resolved automatically, without the need for human interference”,
concludes the executive.
With an investment of over R$ 25 million directed to this technology, Neoenergia now has 352 automatic relocators in a self-healing scheme spread throughout the Federal District. This means that 27% of Brazilians - more than 300,000 homes and businesses or 1 million people - are already benefiting from technology. It is expected that 105 more equipment will be installed in 2024.
Pioneering - Self-healing schemes are currently the most modern in automation and network intelligence in the world and Neoenergia is a pioneer in the implementation of network solutions intelligent in the regions where they operate. An example is that this type of solution did not exist in the Federal District before the distribution company joined
.
How it works - The technology is designed to automatically detect interruptions in the power supply and quickly isolate the damaged section, re-establishing the light in a matter of seconds for most of the affected customers. This mechanism acts in situations where the network is impacted, for example, by falling trees or lightning during storms
