A Micro Grid is a part linked to the electric power system that can operate autonomously (islanded) or in parallel connection in accordance with the convenience and needs of both utilities as the final consumer. The Universidade Positivo developed since 2014 one Microgrid project integrating renewable distributed generation such as Micro Hydraulic Power Plant, Photovoltaic Generation Arrangements, Power Generation Wind and Biotechnological processes. This paper presents the details and initial results of the project that already has solar and wind power and should be completed in 2017 with the gradual entry of other sources. It is also being developed a data collection system and monitoring and control in order to provide a detailed and didactic view of the entire system. The Universidade Positivo already applied the islanding of installation through a diesel generating unit that operates at peak times and in emergency interruptions. With the gradual implementation of this Micro Grid project it is already possible to identify the benefits of renewable distributed generation in reducing diesel consumption and the emission of Co2 in the atmosphere. Another important point of this project is the integration of Electrical Engineering, Energy, Mechanical, Computer Science, Civil Engineering and Bio Process where the primary source is variable within the specialty of each engineering and the process output is the electricity, conditioned and controlled.
