Sunlution, Pioneer of Floating Solar Panels in Brazil, Indicates That Numerous Jobs Can Be Created and Various Investments Can Be Attracted in the Next 10 Years

Aneel – National Electric Energy Agency recently announced the start of a public consultation to regulate the establishment of hybrid power plants and similar facilities in Brazil. Sunlution, a pioneer in floating solar panels in the country, insists that hybrid energy generation can attract 76 billion reais in investments and create 475,000 jobs in 10 years, allowing Brazil to occupy an important position in the renewable energy market with a strong standing in the green hydrogen market.

Sunlution, in cooperation with Chesf, has plants at the Sobradinho Hydroelectric Plant – Bahia, and Fazenda Figueiredo in Cristalina – Goiás. In the State of São Paulo, BYD and KWP acted as partners, and Sunlution installed a system at the Billings Dam, whose buoys and panels were entirely manufactured for Emae in Brazil.

Luiz Piauhylino Filho, Managing Partner of Sunlution, says, “We recently saw that municipalities and state governments see public-private partnerships (PPPs) as a solution to invest in clean generation. The news is good, but it is necessary to focus on the positive social impact of job creation, not just on the economy of the public sector. Investments will open a new job market, and interested parties should seek qualification from now on.”

The launch of floating solar projects will also impact the job market. Sector forecasts indicate that, as this situation is expected to change in the next 10 years, it is anticipated that 17% of professionals will migrate to new jobs.

The trend in the renewable energy sector is that the main job vacancies will be for electricians, electrical engineers, and drone operators. The photovoltaic plant will open vacancies in construction, operation, and maintenance.

Luiz further adds, “Companies in the fertilizer, steel, and cement segments are already showing concern about adapting to international compliance, which will require a clean supply chain in production. This is an irreversible path because markets will demand it.”
