The constant changes in the Brazilian Electric Sector bring both threats and opportunities. The Publication of the R&D Program Manual of the National Agency of Electrical Energy (ANEEL), in May 2008, significantly changed the approval process for projects of Research and Development. The responsibility for evaluating and selecting projects shifted to the electrical energy concessionaries’. Thus, this research was developed with the main objective of proposing a set of criteria to assist in the evaluation and selection of R&D projects of electrical energy concessionaries for reducing the risk of disapproval or partial approval by ANEEL. To achieve the main goal, we proposed the following specific objectives: a) Identify the impact of public policies of Research, Development and Innovation in Brazilian Electric Sector; b) Characterize the importance of alignment of Research, Development and Innovation projects with the strategic planning of the organization; c) Identify the main methods and criteria for project selection and analysis of Research, Development and Innovation; d) Characterize the importance of committees and commissions of Research, Development and Innovation prior to analysis and selection of Research, Development and Innovation projects. As a research tool, the quantitative approach was used, and data collected via an electronic questionnaire. The questionnaire was prepared with a list of structured questions, as follows: 16 questions with application of the Likert scale graded from 1 to 4 according to the degree of agreement or disagreement; 06 issues in order of preference scale ranging from 1 to 5, 1 being the most important and 5 the least, 02 multiple choice questions, and 01 open question with the intention of providing additional comments from respondents. The research population is composed of 214 electric power companies with mandatory investment in Research, Development and Innovation, and the criteria for the sample selection was the tradition of investment in Research, Development and Innovation before the publication of the Law No. 9.991/2000. The result of the sample was the selection of the following companies: Cemig, Copel, Eletrobras and subsidiaries (Furnas, Eletronorte, Eletrosul Chesf and CGTEE) which together represent approximately 50% of the installed load of the Brazilian Electric Sector. Among the key results are: 1) The suggestion for creating two groups for projects evaluation and selection: a committee with an executive function responsible for prioritizing the projects selected by the second group which is formed by experts whose task is to evaluate and select projects according to technical and scientific criteria, including ANEEL’s criteria; 2) To keep an office for Research, Development and Innovation projects with specialists who will directly monitor the projects in partnership with universities and research institutes; it will be available full-time in order to internalize the results and knowledge generated by the Research, Development and Innovation activities; 3) To prioritize the strategic approach and the proposal of a set of additional criteria for ANEEL, in order to aid the evaluation and selection of Research, Development and Innovation projects.
