The achievement was celebrated by the Brazilian Solar Photovoltaic Energy Association (ABSOLAR). The survey takes into account the sum of large centralized plants and small distributed systems in homes, businesses, industries, rural properties, and the public sector.

Investments in the Solar Energy Sector

ABSOLAR reported R$ 10.7 billion in accumulated private investments in photovoltaic solar energy in 2019.

The sector also takes pride in having created over 134,000 jobs accumulated since 2012, with more than 63,000 jobs in just 2019.

China, followed by Japan, the United States, and Germany are the leading countries in the ranking according to the global entity.

To put Brazil’s achievement into perspective, in 2017, the country was in 27th position. In 2018, it jumped to 21st, and now it has reached 16th place.

If we consider the other main renewable sources (hydropower, wind, and biomass), Brazil is already among the top 10 in the world.

According to Ronaldo Koloszuk, president of ABSOLAR’s Board of Directors, Brazil should celebrate this achievement and reminds us that in solar energy, the country has yet to reach the TOP 10 in the world, but has every capability to get there and emphasizes the ocean of opportunities for those who want to work and invest in this market.

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.

Africa has about 500,000 cell towers and most still burn diesel to operate, while companies rush to cover antennas with solar energy and avoid signal blackouts.

Farmers swapped diesel for solar panels in Pakistan, powered irrigation pumps almost cost-free, expanded rice fields, and now groundwater has become a red alert in the countryside.
