In total, solar photovoltaic distributed generation has about 2.3 gigawatts (GW) of installed capacity. This value is the sum of residences, businesses, industries, public buildings, small plots of land, and rural producers.
200,000 solar energy generation systems are already in operation, which represents 99.8% of the connections of this type in the country, making it a leader in the segment.
A survey conducted by the entity reveals that, since 2012, accumulated investments in the sector total more than R$ 11.9 billion, distributed across five regions of Brazil, covering more than 79.9% of the total municipalities.
In numerical terms, 72.60% are represented by residential consumers, 18% by commerce and services, 6.3% by rural consumers, 2.7% by industries, 0.4% by public authorities, other types (such as public services) 0.04%, and public lighting with 0.01%.
The President of the Board of Directors of ABSOLAR, Ronaldo Koloszuk, states that: “The use of solar photovoltaic energy in conjunction with agribusiness brings competitive advantages to rural producers, as it reduces electricity costs, increases electrical safety, protects consumers against rising electricity tariffs, increases the supply of electricity on rural properties, makes production in the fields cleaner and more sustainable, and adds value to the rural producer’s brand.”
