Maranhão Attracts Investments in Solar Energy
Edsun’s CEO explains, “Maranhão has great potential for solar energy. Our goal is to install 30 more plants in the state.” Edsun is looking for condominiums to install its photovoltaic solar power plants and, thus, reduce electricity bill costs by up to 30%. The condominiums do not need to bear any costs, as the startup’s investors purchase the equipment and profit through renting the structures. Edsun guarantees maintenance throughout the contract duration at no extra cost for the condominium in Maranhão.
“Solar energy is clean and profitable, which is why we believe in the full potential of solar power plants, which are the future of electricity distribution,” says Cristiano Costa from Sun Supply.

The world has bet on green hydrogen as the fuel of the future, but now faces the side effect: producing 1 kilogram requires about 9 liters of ultrapure water, and the largest projects on the planet are precisely in the driest regions of the Earth, where water is already scarce for people.
Besides Maranhão, Edsun operates in all Brazilian states, focusing on residential and commercial condominiums. It is worth noting that, in addition to savings, the proposed solution generates property appreciation, which can reach 6%, according to research conducted by the Brazilian Association of Photovoltaic Solar Energy (Absolar).
Solar Energy in Maranhão
The generation of solar energy in Maranhão is among the best performing in the country, according to specialists, as the state has reached the milestone of 100 installed photovoltaic power plants, divided into micro and mini plants. Moreover, investments have become increasingly present and accessible to the population, as well as the enhancement of interest in installation and savings from clean and renewable energy.
Therefore, it is easy to list the reasons why it is advantageous to acquire a photovoltaic system in Maranhão, considering aspects such as: solar energy potential; number of solar power plants in the state; installation costs of solar panels; return on investment; and installation companies in the region.
