Brasilia Gigawatt Solar Module

4 FAQs about Brasilia Gigawatt Solar Module

How big is solar generating capacity in Brazil?

Compared with distributed solar, utility-scale solar generating capacity at the end of June was only 17.9 GW, according to the Brazilian Electricity Regulatory Agency (ANEEL). As of June 30, 2025, total solar electric generating capacity in Brazil was 23% of the total electric generating capacity.

Are solar modules coming to Brazil?

However, some of these PV modules have not yet arrived in Brazil, which will be reflected in the import data for the first quarter of 2024. In 2023, the price of solar modules in Brazil fell by an average of 40%, mainly due to the expansion of the Brazilian solar industry.

Does Brazil need solar power?

However, Brazil's demand for electricity is mainly from the eastern coast that relies primarily on hydropower, which could be insufficient to fulfill the ring electricity demand during the coming years. According IRENA, Brazil's total installed solar energy capacity reached around 24.08 GW in 2022 increased from around 14.19 GW in 2021.

How many solar modules did Brazil import in the fourth quarter?

The fourth quarter broke records with over 5GW of imports, as noted by Greener, a local solar analysis and advice company—that's the most Brazil ever saw in three months.
