GreenYellow, a French energy transition multinational, and Matrix Energia, a digital distributor of electrical energy in the Brazilian market, have just announced a partnership that involves the construction of three solar plants, which, together, reach a total of 16,28 MWp of installed capacity and 34,9 GWh of annual production.
The generated resource will be dedicated to the subscription solar energy service provided by Matrix Energia. The photovoltaic farms will be implemented by GreenYellow in the concession areas of Equatorial, in Porteirão (GO) and Sigefredo Pacheco (PI), and ENEL, in Morada Nova (CE), covering approximately 645 municipalities in these regions.
In this way, Matrix Energia estimates that it will be able to serve 2.900 consumers who will have the opportunity to reduce energy costs and also stimulate the generation and injection of renewable resources into the networks of the respective concessionaires.
According to Rafael Moreira, Commercial Director at Matrix Energia, the growth in Brazilians taking up the subscription energy contracting service is a reflection of the maturation of the energy generation market and also of consumers, who have come to understand the advantages of this modality for their pockets. and for the environment.
“According to data from the MME (Ministry of Mines and Energy), renewables represent more than 80% of the country's entire electricity matrix. In addition, ABSOLAR (Brazilian Association of Photovoltaic Solar Energy) announced that the solar source in DG (distributed generation) added 7 GW to the Brazilian energy matrix in 2023, reaching almost 25 GW of installed power, more than double the power installed in centralized generation”, he stated.
“These data show the importance of photovoltaic generation at the moment we are living in and the process of popularizing access to renewable energy for all people, especially in the Northeast and Central-West regions”, highlighted the executive.
Moreira also emphasized that the company plans to operate more than 500 MWac of decentralized generation in 2024, which should position the company as one of the largest shared DG players in Brazil, with operations in at least 21 concessionaires.
The access opinions were issued by the distributors within the distributed generation regulation period, that is, before Law 14.300/22 came into force. As Marcelo Varlese, commercial director of GreenYellow in Brazil, explains, the company had already prepared in advance with the aim of closing these DG projects throughout 2023, complying with the previous rules.
“GreenYellow is responsible for the investment, implementation, operation and maintenance processes of the plants that will be built, which are estimated to avoid the emission of 1.490 tons of CO2 into the environment over a period of one year”, he highlighted.
“GreenYellow positions itself in the market as a partner for customers' energy transition and the DG projects have allowed GreenYellow to advance greatly in this direction, reaching more than 100 MWp of installed capacity in 2023. Thanks to this evolution, the company has been investing also on new fronts, such as centralized generation”, concluded Varlese.
