Last year, the solar generation in Brazil it reached 50.6 TWh, adding GC (centralized generation) and DG (distributed generation), a increase of 68.1% compared to 2022. In 2023, it was also observed that the capacity installed from the photovoltaic source achieved 37,843 MW, an increase of 54.8%, compared to 2022.
The data was released this week in the National Energy Balance 2024 prepared by EPE (Energy Research Company) in partnership with the MME (Ministry of Mines and Energy).
Distributed generation in Brazil
In distributed generation, the BNE 2024 highlights that the Solar energy generation represented 96.3% of the DG segment in 2023, once again being the main source responsible for the increase recorded in micro and minigeneration distributed in the country.
With its strong presence in the DG segment, solar energy generation increased from 18,423 GWh, in 2022, to 30,950 GWh, in 2023. A growth of almost 68%.
The 2024 National Energy Balance also provided an overview of the growth of photovoltaic sources over the years, indicating the trajectory of continued growth of solar generation at a higher rate than other sources.
The balance showed that the additional installed DG capacity was concentrated in the Center-South of Brazil, influenced by the expansion of solar sources in federative units such as Minas Gerais, São Paulo, Santa Catarina, Rio Grande do Sul It is Mato Grosso.
