Join this experience and help drive the future of the energy sector in Brazil

An initiative regulated by ANEEL’s R&D Program, connecting residential consumers to energy innovation. The pilot explores how real adjustments in consumption can support the power grid and generate valuable insights for the future.

The Challenge

The energy sector is changing rapidly. Balancing demand and supply is becoming increasingly complex, especially with the growth of intermittent renewable sources.


At the same time, consumer engagement and home automation create a new opportunity: residential flexibility can be used as a strategic resource during critical moments on the grid.


However, real-world data is still missing to demonstrate how this works in practice in Brazil.

The Program

We are launching an experimental pilot program in which residential consumers reduce or postpone energy use at specific times, with secure external monitoring for research purposes.

By participating:

Your home connects to a digital platform that safely records consumption.


You receive invitations via WhatsApp to adjust energy use at scheduled times.


The collected data helps create models and policies for the future of the power sector.


No energy will be injected into the grid and no changes will be made to your electrical installation.


You receive financial incentives via Pix for your participation.

Be part of the first residential flexibility experience under ANEEL’s R&D Program.

Contribute to research shaping the future of the energy sector.

Receive real payments for adjusting your consumption at specific times.

Support the energy transition in a practical and safe way.

Frequently asked questions

F.A.Q.

What is a Virtual Power Plant (VPP)?

 É uma tecnologia que conecta e coordena consumidores de energia para que juntos possam oferecer flexibilidade ao sistema elétrico. Na prática, você será convidado a reduzir ou ajustar seu consumo em momentos específicos e será recompensado por isso.

Do I need home automation to participate?

No. Any residential consumer can participate, even without automation. If you already have automation, it may increase your relevance to the project, but it's not required.

How does compensation work?

During the pilot, you'll receive payments via Pix whenever you accept an event and adjust your consumption accordingly.

Will I lose comfort at home if I participate?

Não necessariamente. As reduções de consumo são de curta duração e você escolhe se deseja participar ou não em cada evento. O objetivo é gerar resultados e benefícios sem prejudicar seu dia a dia.

How long do I need to participate?

 The pilot will run from November 2025 to February 2026.

Do I need special equipment to participate?

 Some participants will have external smart meters installed for real-time data collection. Installation is free, simple, and performed by our technical team in compliance with ANEEL, without affecting your energy bill.

Who is behind this project?
