Abstract

The deployment of smart grids has become a global trend in the most diverse electrical systems. This strategy aims to increase the control and efficiency of electrical systems. However, this deployment requires major changes to systems, for example, the information of a telecommunications infrastructure and the provision of adequate equipment, human resources and financial resources. In Brazil, which is territorially large and contains a power distribution system with centralised generation, the deployment of smart grids tends to be time-consuming and could require decades to complete, as well as a large monetary investment. Therefore, the elaboration and implementation of well-defined criteria are necessary for the planning steps of this deployment to minimise the investment cost.
