| Deskribapena: | The study of resilience in electrical distribution systems has become a critical topic in the current context of climate change and increasing uncertainty in energy generation and distribution. This article proposes a methodology to estimate the resilience of COELCHA's distribution system, considering the integration of renewable energy sources. To this end, three case studies are analyzed that illustrate how photovoltaic generation can improve the stability and load capacity of electrical systems. The first case study presents the development of software for controlling electrical demand in industrial systems, demonstrating that the inclusion of solar panels reduces maximum demand by 27% and increases the load factor by 32,5%. The second case describes the design of an autonomous photovoltaic power plant, which reduces dependence on the electrical grid and increases energy autonomy. The third case evaluates the impact of a photovoltaic power plant on the Matala-Lubango-Namibe power system, showing an increase in load capacity of 31,1 MW and an 11% improvement in voltage stability. Based on these cases, a three-phase methodology (definition, analysis, and implementation) is proposed to estimate the resilience of COELCHA's system against extreme climate events. The results demonstrate that the integration of renewable energies, along with analysis and simulation tools, is essential for designing more resilient and sustainable electrical systems. |
