Even with all the economic and market difficulties faced in the first semester 2023 and problems related to flow reversal that persist to this day, over 625 thousand DG systems (distributed generation) were connected to the distribution network last year.
The data – published by ANEEL (National Electric Energy Agency) – show that the modality also accumulated more than 7.4 GW of installed power in 2023, meaning that over 837 thousand consumer units began to rely on surpluses and credits from the energy generated by the systems.
O The result was the second highest annual quantity ever recorded by ANEEL, second only to the result of 2022, when more than 796 thousand distributed generation units were connected to the grid, with installed power exceeding 8.3 GW.
Among the more than 625 thousand units connected to the grid in 2023, practically all of it is based on solar sources. The states with the most installed power in the period were: São Paulo (1.1 GW), Minas Gerais (870 MW), Paraná (630 MW), Rio Grande do Sul (600 MW) and Mato Grosso (530 MW).
Brazil exceeds 25 GW
According to ANEEL monitoring, the Brazil ended last year with just over 25.8 GW in installed power in DG It is more than 2.3 million connections in 5,545 municipalities.
The state that ended the year with the highest installed power in the segment was Minas Gerais (3.50 GW installed and 269 thousand systems), followed by São Paulo (3.47 GW installed and 368 thousand systems) and Rio Grande do Sul ( 2.60 GW installed and 288 thousand systems).
According to calculations presented by ABSOLAR (Brazilian Photovoltaic Solar Energy Association), since 2012 distributed solar energy has already been responsible for attracting more than R$ 128.4 billion in investments and more than 768.1 thousand jobs accumulated in the country.
