Em novembro deste ano, a matriz elétrica brasileira atingiu o marco de mais de 228 GW em capacidade instalada, sendo uma das maiores e mais diversificadas globalmente. A participação de fontes de energia renováveis ​​como hidrelétrica, eólica, solar e biomassa, respondem por mais de 90% do total, fazendo do Brasil o país do G20 que possui a matriz elétrica com maior uso de energias renováveis, de acordo com estudo da Ember Climate. 

Essa realidade é bastante favorável para o país, principalmente no contexto da transição energética, que almeja ajudar no combate às alterações climáticas resultantes do aquecimento global. Uma das maneiras de limitar esse aquecimento é justamente por meio da descarbonização, ponto fundamental da transição.

No Brasil, o setor de energia não é o principal emissor de carbono. De acordo com um estudo da Empresa de Pesquisa Energética (EPE), em 2022, estima-se que a produção e o uso de energia tenham correspondido a apenas 24% das emissões brasileiras de gases de efeito estufa (GEE), número explicado pela matriz energética diversificada e com ampla participação de fontes renováveis. Contudo, a descarbonização do setor elétrico é chave tanto para reduzir ainda mais sua participação direta nas emissões, quanto para apoiar os demais setores que precisam de eletrificação e descarbonização, como o setor de transporte, unindo esforços para ajudar a combater o aquecimento global.

Diante disso, o crescimento de fontes como a eólica e a solar segue como um dos principais pilares da descarbonização, inserindo ainda mais energia renováve na matriz que apoiará as demandas por uma eletrificação eficiente e sustentável. Há algumas décadas, essas fontes – até então consideradas alternativas – ainda não figuravam nas estatísticas de geração de energia com os primeiros projetos sendo iniciados apenas no final dos anos 2000. Hoje, a realidade é bem diferente, e essas mesmas fontes já respondem por mais de 20% da matriz elétrica brasileira, número que deve chegar aos 23% em 2028, segundo a projeção do Operador Nacional do Sistema (ONS).

INTEGRAÇÃO É CHAVE PARA A DESCARBONIZAÇÃO

Espera-se que o crescimento da geração eólica e solar continue especialmente considerando os objetivos da transição energética. Contudo, esse crescimento vem acompanhado de grandes desafios, dada a intermitência característica dessas fontes, por exemplo, considerando que há períodos nos quais os ventos não estão soprando com todo seu potencial e o sol deixa de incidir sobre os parques solares.

Para equilibrar o sistema, outras fontes entram em ação e destacam a importância de seu papel ao complementar a rede elétrica conforme a demanda, fornecendo energia despachável. Uma dessas fontes é a hidráulica, que detém a maior participação na matriz elétrica do país, sendo sua principal fonte de energia renovável há décadas e uma grande aliada da transição energética. Cláudio Trejger, CEO da unidade de Hydro Power para a América Latina, alerta para o fato de que as usinas hidrelétricas brasileiras estão operando há décadas e é fundamental investir também na modernização delas. Esse tipo de serviço ajuda a prolongar a vida útil desses ativos, melhorando a eficiência e otimizando a utilização do recurso hídrico disponível para atender à demanda de eletricidade no país. “Existe uma grande oportunidade para aumentar a potência em várias usinas, porém as geradoras não têm explorado esta possibilidade, pois aguardam a revisão das regras vigentes. A modernização ajuda a aumentar a eficiência e tornar a usina estar disponível por mais tempo, oferecendo maior segurança ao fornecimento de energia. Para isso, nossos times trabalham integrando serviços e tecnologias para otimizar as operações de hidrelétricas como no caso da maior atualização tecnológica da Itaipu Binacional (segunda maior usina hidrelétrica do mundo), e do projeto de modernização da Usina Hidrelétrica de São Simão. Também gostaria de destacar a possibilidade de implantar Usinas Reversíveis, tecnologia oferecida pela GE Vernova, e que pode assumir um importante papel no programa de transição energética do país”, disse Cláudio.

Outra fonte que também tem a capacidade necessária de despacho para complementar as fontes intermitentes e apoiar a atuação da fonte hidráulica, em especial quando o país enfrenta crises hídricas, é o gás natural. Daniel Meniuk, VP de Serviços para América Latina para Gas Power, afirma que “no Brasil, as termelétricas modernas a gás natural, como as usinas do Complexo Azulão e Porto de Sergipe I, fazem a diferença ao ajudar a complementar e a manter nossa rede estável, oferecendo energia segura, confiável e cada dia mais sustentável dada a melhoria constante da tecnologia utilizada." Segundo ele, além de fornecer uma fonte confiável e complementar à geração renovável, as emissões de turbinas a gás podem ser ainda mais reduzidas no futuro usando hidrogênio como combustível e tecnologias de captura de carbono. "No portfólio da GE Vernova, já temos turbinas a gás natural capazes de queimar hidrogênio, de acordo com a demanda do cliente e a infraestrutura da planta. Um exemplo disso ocorre na planta DeBary da Duke Energy, que deve se tornar uma das primeiras usinas de energia em operação comercial a produzir, armazenar e queimar 100% por volume de hidrogênio verde para aplicações relacionadas aos picos de energia", conclui.

MAIS QUE UMA GERAÇAO EFICIENTE, ESTABILIDADE NA ENTREGA

Se a integração de diferentes fontes precisa ser muito bem orquestrada para permitir o crescimento sustentável das fontes renováveis sem prejudicar o abastecimento de energia, gerenciar a qualidade da operação da rede, com foco na estabilidade e segurança da rede elétrica, também é fundamental.

“A rede elétrica é uma das invenções humanas mais complexas que existem. E quando a gente tem mais eólica e solar entrando, a gente tem flutuações de rede e, consequentemente na qualidade da energia que está sendo entregue em todo o país. Por isso, essa rede tem que ser monitorada e condicionada”, afirma Renato Yabiku, CTO para América Latina na unidade de Power Conversion. “A GE Vernova traz um portfólio completo de soluções (hardwares e softwares), desde a geração até a parte de estabilização, seja por meio de programas de orquestração da rede. Como exemplo, destaco os compensadores síncronos, equipamentos que servem justamente para aumentar a capacidade e a estabilidade do Sistema Interligado Nacional (SIN), oferecendo maior qualidade e segurança à transmissão de energia elétrica mesmo em condições adversas. Essa tecnologia ajuda a evitar interrupções e apagões e complementa outras como o STATCOM,  que é uma espécie de inversor conectado à rede para dar potência de forma reativa, contribuindo para a estabilização”, explica.

Nesse sentido, Sergio Binda, Líder de Grid Automation para a GE Vernova na América Latina, reforça que a empresa também possui soluções digitais e integradas com poder de computação aumentada, desenvolvidas para gerenciar a rede, visando maior segurança, confiabilidade, capacidade e resiliência na transmissão de energia. “Quando pensamos em uma solução para a rede, inclusive visando a estabilização, existem tecnologias para dar respostas a eventos como uma falha ou um curto-circuito. Esses pacotes de software, como o GridOS e GridBeats, por exemplo, oferecem modelos adequados para cada um dos equipamentos”, afirma. Binda ainda destaca que essas soluções próprias trazem mais valor e uma resposta mais assertiva e segura para aqueles que geram energia e operam o sistema.

DE OLHO NO FUTURO: INTEGRAÇÃO E NOVAS TECNOLOGIAS

Com base em mais de 130 anos de experiência e um portfólio completo de soluções em geração, transmissão, armazenamento de energia, além de softwares e outras tecnologias digitais focadas em eletrificação e descarbonização, a GE Vernova está posicionada de forma única para acelerar a transição energética. Atualmente, sua base tecnológica instalada ajuda a gerar cerca de um quarto da energia no mundo, posicionando a empresa como líder em toda a cadeia de valor da indústria de energia.
