Abstract

The decision processes and institutional relationships along the stages of the brazilian electricity energy supply chain have been strongly changed during the reform process, thus requiring that restructuring be well fitted to the new hybrid environment (state and private) with market players, state companies and a regulator. One of the most important aspects in this process is the interaction among the state regulation and the competitive management, thus requering a dynamic equilibrium between these two players. A possible way to achieve this equilibrium and also increase the efficiency of the energy system, with separate businesses for each stage of the supply chain, could be the integrative management and the proposal of a set of initiatives to encourage the cooperation along the extended supply chain stages. In this context, this research work aims at presenting the current configuration of the brazilian electricity supply chain, with a description of the main changes after deregulation of the electric sector, as wel as its impacts on the supply chain as a whole. The proposed methodology includes qualitative and quantitative analysis, in order to show that the systemic analysis of the electricity energy supply chain is a conceptual framework very apropriated to the identification of potentialities and weakness that can pose risks to the efficiency in the competitive markets. With the description of all these aspects, this researck work aims at bring real contributions to the current planning needs in the area, with specific emphasis on the efforts to achieve integration and conexion among the most relevant components and processes of the energy system to decision making process, as well as the introduction of new concepts with potential to extend the present knowledge in this area (AU)
