In a new monthly column for <b>pv magazine</b>, the International Solar Energy Society (ISES) reports that Brazil currently has more than 85% renewable electricity, mainly hydropower, but with rapidly growing shares of solar and wind power.
Rooftop PV accounts for around 70% of the installed PV capacity in Brazil, and as the information about the widening price difference between solar electricity and retail electricity tariffs spreads, more and more residential consumers embark on the rooftop PV option.
Soon, as Li-ion batteries and electric vehicle prices decline, the shift away from fossil-fueled vehicles will bring new electricity demands, and rooftop solar PV will lead to the least-cost per km alternative. Author: Prof. Ricardo Rüther (UFSC). rruther@gmail.com
Image: TAIS HELENA DE CARVALHO, Unsplash In 2023, PV uptake in Brazil grew at a rate of more than 1 GW per month (70% of that rooftop PV), and the cumulative installed PV capacity reached over 37 GW. The deployment rate is 60 W per person per year and is fast enough to double the installed capacity every two years.
