Resumo

This work aims to analyse, from the point of view of long-term electrical power sector planning, the regulatory aspects for the implementation of offshore gas-to-wire (GtW) technology, focusing on a Brazilian case study and pre-salt fields. The main results show that in terms of implementation, offshore GtW must be auctioned as a structuring project and offshore transmission for the GtW power plant could adopt the same model used for Itaipti transmission or be attached to the Basic Network, GtW also requires a practice of priority dispatch, by a contract of quantity (and not availability). Policy changes are urgently needed to coordinate regulation of the electricity and gas sectors. (AU)
