6 FAQs about [Brazilian solar companies]

Is Brazil a good producer of solar energy?

Just three years ago, Brazil did not feature among the world’s top producers of solar energy, but by 2023 it had risen to sixth place in the rankings. The pace of growth has been notable: since 2022, the country has added, on average, roughly one gigawatt of solar capacity every month.

How many solar energy systems will Brazil have by 2024?

The country expects to have 1.2 million solar power generation systems by 2024. With its net-meter policy and decreasing solar energy cost, Brazil's solar energy is anticipated to increase during the forecast period. Brazil is one of the most advanced countries in South America with respect to the development of renewable energies.

Will a fee be applied for solar energy in Brazil?

However, Brazil's electricity regulator, Agência Nacional de Energia Elétrica (ANEEL), proposed to apply a fee for solar systems with up to 5 MW of power generation capacity. Further, installing other renewable energy sources such as wind, hydro, and others is expected to hinder the market's growth during the forecast period.

Does Brazil need solar power?

However, Brazil's demand for electricity is mainly from the eastern coast that relies primarily on hydropower, which could be insufficient to fulfill the ring electricity demand during the coming years. According IRENA, Brazil's total installed solar energy capacity reached around 24.08 GW in 2022 increased from around 14.19 GW in 2021.

How many solar PV contracts are there in Brazil?
