Decarbonization, Digitalization and Decentralization are considered the main key drivers for this power system transition and Brazil is no exception to this universal trend. A search of the literature revealed few studies which attempt to address the main challenges and opportunities towards a smart grid power system in Brazil.
Smart grids are expected to be at an intermediate level of development in Brazil by 2030 ( Carvalho, 2015 ). A disruptive project towards a smart grid power system has been recently proposed by a state-controlled electricity company in the country (in Portuguese, Companhia Paranaense de Energia – COPEL).
Smart metering is considered an emerging and under development technological system in Brazil. Currently, the use of smart metering is Brazil is restricted to pilot smart grid projects of specific distribution utilities. The deployment of smart meters is a fundamental step for the deployment of smart grids in Brazil.
Challenges and opportunities for a smart grid power system in Brazil are addressed. An inadequate net-metering system for DG may shift the costs from DG to non-DG users. The deployment of storage technologies is at a slow pace of growth. Regulation for electrical vehicles is still emerging.
This system was proposed by the Brazilian Electricity Regulatory Agency (ANEEL) in 2013, and it is regulated by the RN nº 547 ( ANEEL, 2013 ), although the starting point of its implementation is dated to 2015.
Summary and discussion It is well known that the global electricity sector has been witnessing a significant share of innovations together with a high increase in renewable energy, and Brazil is no exception. Decarbonization, Digitalization and Decentralization of the energy sector will be the main three key drivers of the power system evolution.

The importance of computational intelligence to detect islanding phenomenon in smart distributed grids , , , . Those works present a probabilistic Neural Network (NN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) as powerful self-adapted machine learning techniques for fault detection.
Effective fault detection, classification, and localization are vital for smart grid self-healing and fault mitigation. Deep learning has the capability to autonomously extract fault characteristics and discern fault categories from the three-phase raw of voltage and current signals.
A case study is introduced as a preliminary study for autonomous smart grid fault detection. In addition, we highlight relevant directions for future research. Smart grid plays a crucial role for the smart society and the upcoming carbon neutral society.
In this paper, a reliable machine learning technique is proposed to detect and classify different faults of smart grids. The proposed technique benefits from the principal component analysis (PCA) and linear discriminant analysis (LDA). The PCA is used to reduce the size of the dataset matrixes.
A classification technique based-on the conventional K-NN algorithm is proposed to detect and classify different types of fault in a smart grid. In the proposed technique, the PCA method is used to decrease the dataset size while LDA provides online classification before applying the K-NN.
In fault detection, those methods are based on the system model by using knowledge of the system to create an analytical mathematical model. Many analytical methods implement a general-purpose estimation method for the particular detection process.
