While the Number of Photovoltaic Generation Installations Grew by 164% in 2019, the Credit Operations of the Cooperative Jumped by 220% in Terms of Solar Energy

According to the National Electric Energy Agency (Aneel), 13.2 thousand new photovoltaic generation units were installed in Rio Grande do Sul in 2019, an increase of 164% compared to the previous year. Of this total, 6 thousand were supported by the credit lines offered by Sicredi, which represents more than 45% of the installations for solar energy generation.

“Sicredi is attentive to the needs of its members and the current demand for more sustainable solutions, such as the production of clean and renewable energy, which resulted in a 220% growth in the number of operations in this line of credit last year compared to 2018,” highlights the Vice President of Sicredi Central South/Southeast, Márcio Port. In financed values by Sicredi in RS, 2019 recorded an amount of R$ 427 million, an increase of 145% compared to 2018, when financing for acquiring equipment for solar energy generation reached R$ 174 million.

In 2019, several projects aimed at the installation of Solar Energy, for both residences and businesses, were enabled in the region through financing from Sicredi das Culturas RS/MG. For member André Bigolin from Ijuí, the choice for the renewable energy system arose from its benefits related to the environmental responsibility of renewable energy, and primarily, due to the savings on the electricity bill.

Dissatisfaction with Solar Energy

“I was quite dissatisfied with the electricity bill for my residence, which had been showing a very high amount. The environmental issue and the fact that renewable energy is clean energy, which can preserve our generation and future generations, also weighed in my decision. This savings I am achieving on the electricity bill allows me to use it to pay off the financing of the system, and from the project we carried out, in a period of 48 months, when I finish paying it off, I will have already gained a real return on my investment.”

Data from the Brazilian Association of Photovoltaic Solar Energy (Absolar) indicate that solar energy produced in the country represents 1.4% of the total national electricity matrix. In the Brazilian ranking of installed capacity, RS holds the second position, behind only Minas Gerais.

Dissatisfaction with Solar Energy

Seen from space, an image taken by an astronaut shows an unlikely oasis in the Saudi Arabian desert, protected by a terrain that slows the advance of sand, surrounded by green circles, remnants of an extinct lake and nearly 10,000 years of preserved history.

While the U.S. still faces limitations in deep space, China is developing unprecedented technology with strategic satellites that maintain communication with the far side of the Moon and aims for dominance by 2030.

In Botswana, a salt flat of up to 16,000 km² that was once an African megalake spends months as an absolute white desert, but during the rainy season it transforms into a shallow sea that reappears from nowhere and can be seen from space in the middle of southern Africa.

The Blood Falls of Antarctica hide a living ecosystem trapped under the ice for over 2 million years, where microbes survive without light, without oxygen, and without ever having seen the Sun.

Bavarian archaeologists unearthed a medieval skeleton that had an articulated iron hand in place of its left arm, and the discovery reveals that doctors were already creating sophisticated prosthetics over 500 years ago.

The CEO of Honor in Spain says that smartphones will change with AI, foldables, and even robot phones; the component crisis is making cheap models more expensive in 2026 and shifting the focus to premium.

NASA announces the first interplanetary nuclear spacecraft in history destined for Mars and technology created to usher in a new era in deep space exploration: meet the SR-1 Freedom, equipped with a fission reactor and three helicopters inspired by Ingenuity to map Martian ice.

With 93 companies selling armored vehicles, aircraft, and monitoring systems to 148 countries, Brazil’s defense industry is doubling exports and is on track to break all records in 2026.

Brazil and Sweden finalize a military agreement to jointly train pilots, share experiences with the Gripen fighter, and allow Swedish crews of the KC-390 to train on Brazilian soil over the next two years.

Scientists warn that Earth’s oxygen has an expiration date and that the Sun itself will be responsible for ending the air we breathe by making photosynthesis impossible in about one billion years.

Science reveals that the error in the expansion of the cosmos is not a measurement flaw, but rather a sign that the universe may be hiding new physics capable of changing everything we know.

Every time a river flows into the sea, an amount of energy equivalent to a 120-meter waterfall is silently wasted, but Japan has just inaugurated the world’s first power plant that captures this waste and transforms it into electricity 24 hours a day without sun, wind, or fuel.

Silicon Valley bets on a 100-hour battery that uses carbon and oxygen to store renewable energy for days and could turn a little-known chemical system into an alternative to critical metal batteries to tackle prolonged blackouts.

Canadian engineers want to compress air in underground caverns and build plants of up to 500 MW that function as giant lungs to store renewable energy for hours and stabilize entire electrical grids.

British engineers cool air until it turns into liquid, store energy for weeks, and create an “invisible battery” capable of sustaining the power grid when the wind stops and the sun disappears.
