Supply side growing rapidly in Brazil

PV projects under development increased considerably in the past month in Brazil

21.04.2015: Brazil had a cumulative installed PV capacity of 19.17 MW as of April. 20, 2015, according to the latest statistics from the country’s energy regulator AgĂȘncia Nacional de Energia ElĂ©trica (ANEEL). Of the 317 PV systems installed in Brazil, however, only 15.17 MW of those systems are currently online, while the remaining 4.0 MW is awaiting regulatory authorization to begin operation. Brazil's installed PV capacity as of Jan. 20, 2014 was 19.17 MW. This means that in the past three months, no PV systems were connected to the grid in Brazil. At the end of 2013, Brazil had a cumulative installed PV capacity of around 6 MW. ANEEL’s statistics also reveal that, despite the high number of large-scale PV projects announced in Brazil over the past 2 years, no PV project is currently under construction and six solar projects totaling 128.4 MW are officially under development, despite the fact that construction on the project has not yet begun. As of Mar. 20, however, the PV projects under development had a combined capacity of 68.5 MW. PV power currently accounts for just 0.01% of Brazil’s total generation capacity, which currently stands at 135.5 GW. © PHOTON
