Development of a Computational Platform for the Analysis of Financial Indicators in Institutions of the Brazilian Federal Education Network in the Context of Distributed Generation: A Case Study of the University of Brasília

The motivation for this study stems from the need for universities to improve energy efficiency and financial management amid increasing sustainability commitments. The main objective of this work is to create a computational platform to provide a comprehensive financial report model, aimed at administrative and financial managers at the University of Brasília (UnB), with specific indicators for monitoring expenses and savings related to electricity consumption. The methodology involves a thorough analysis of several indicators, including expense composition, energy tariffs, savings generated by Distributed Generation (DG) systems, fines, and demand contracts. The results demonstrate that it is possible to obtain a detailed view of the dynamics of energy consumption in government institutions, highlighting critical areas of spending and savings opportunities. The report model developed is a powerful tool for managers, allowing for more informed and strategic decision-making by focusing on efficiency and sustainability. It concludes with policy recommendations to promote reduced electricity costs, including suggestions for generating locally viable sustainable energy, changes to demand side contracts, and reduced expenditure on fines related to power factor.
