Bill 3,744/2026 Establishes Legal Framework for Decentralized Electric Energy Market

Federal Deputy José Medeiros (PL-MT) presented Bill 3,744/2026, which establishes the Legal Framework for the Decentralized Electric Energy Market (MMDEE) in the Chamber of Deputies. The text sets guidelines for bilateral energy trading and creates an environment focused on innovation, allowing the use of blockchain technology in the national electricity sector. The new rules aim to modernize the regulatory framework in response to changes in consumer profiles and the growth of local microgeneration. Medeiros dedicated a chapter to the use of distributed ledgers for authenticity certification, enabling market agents to use digital tools to automate smart contract agreements. The system allows for detailed auditing of transactions and ensures the traceability of traded energy. The adoption of these innovations must respect the principles of personal data protection and transparency. The bill prohibits the imposition of a specific technological solution, respecting neutrality and avoiding harm to smaller operators. The use of the distributed network is optional, facilitating producers' adaptation without requiring high investments. The bill amends existing laws to include digital energy assets in the country's trade, and the process goes through legislative committees before a vote in the plenary.
