Comparativa de la normativa para la conexión de sistemas solares fotovoltaicos en Latinoamérica y España

Abstract

Energy policies play a key role in driving and regulating distributed energy generation globally. Currently, the growth of the electricity system suggests the need to implement clean energy sources, composed of a comprehensive regulatory framework. This research compares regulations around distributed photovoltaic generation and identifies similarities and differences in technical specifications, installation permits, and commercialization in microgeneration that injects surplus energy to the distribution network in Ecuador, Argentina, Colombia, Peru, Bolivia and Spain. The results obtained provide a comprehensive view of the current regulations in Latin America and Spain regarding the connection of solar photovoltaic systems (SPS). In addition, some improvements in self-consumption regulations are suggested to maximize the economic benefits of this type of installations and to foster the sustainable growth of solar PV in both regions.
