Isolated energy communities in the Amazon are known by not being integrated to the rest of the net country of generation and distribution of electric energy. Therefore, Federal Government proposes an equal electric energy distribution for everyone in the country in order to bring social and economic development, mainly to the isolated energy communities. In this context, the isolated Arixi Community, a small village in the Amazon, is focus of the project "Alternative Production Energy from Cell Fuel and Natural Gas in the Amazon State - CELCOMB", a partnership between Federal Amazon University and State University of Campinas, which has the objective of producing alternative energy from cell fuel and natural gas. The objective of this article is to analyze the energy aspects of the Isolated Community of Arixi in the Amazon, and also get to know its energy demand. To do so, this article is based on an in course master dissertation and also in community field research. So, despite of the fact that this article is part of a larger project, by analyzing energy datas and nowadays demands of the community, we will be able to examine what are the real electry energy requirements of an isolated community in the Amazon.
