An Unmissable Event for Professionals and Enthusiasts of Sustainable Energy
Between April 16 and 17, the city of Curitiba, in Paraná, will host the 23rd Regional Forum on Distributed Generation in the South region, known as Forum GD Sul. This annual meeting is recognized as one of the leading events in the field of renewable energies, attracting a diverse audience that includes manufacturers, distributors, and experts from Brazil and countries such as Germany, China, and Italy. The event will be held at the Federation of Industries of the State of Paraná (FIEP), with scheduled activities from 8 AM to 6 PM.
Organized by Grupo FRG Mídias & Eventos in partnership with FIEP and the Technology Institute of Paraná (TECPAR), the forum aims to discuss challenges, solutions, and opportunities in the distributed generation (GD) sector, with a special focus on Paraná and neighboring states such as Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul.
The Current Scenario of Renewable Energy
Brazil stands out in renewable energy generation, having 27.9 gigawatts (GW) of installed capacity, according to data from the National Electric Energy Agency (ANEEL). In this context, the South region emerges as the second largest producer, with Paraná leading in solar energy generation. The state has 2.6 GW of installed capacity, reflecting an investment of approximately R$ 11.7 billion since 2012, as well as the creation of over 70,000 jobs.

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.
-
Migrant workers left the world’s largest renewable energy park in India after extreme heat, 12-hour shifts, delayed wages, and poor accommodations at a site that still promises to supply 18 million homes.
In addition to the economic impact, Paraná is also an example of sustainability, with over 200,000 solar energy connections spread across all its municipalities, demonstrating the state’s commitment to distributed energy generation.
