Solar energy and the energy transition in Brazil

Brazil is at a decisive moment in its energy transition. With over 60 gigawatts of installed solar power and a 23,5% share of the electricity grid, the country already occupies a prominent position on the global stage, demonstrating its immense potential, according to a report by ABSOLAR (Brazilian Photovoltaic Solar Energy Association).

But to transform this potential into global prominence, it will be necessary to take firm steps toward technological innovation, strengthening electrical infrastructure, and democratizing access to renewable sources.

It is in this context that GoodWe reaffirms its commitment to supporting Brazil's sustainable development. Our mission goes beyond manufacturing solar inverters and storage batteries: we want to deliver complete solutions that combine efficiency, reliability, and sustainability for everyone, from homes to all sectors of the economy, with special attention to agribusiness and industry, fundamental pillars of national development.

Solar energy, besides being a clean and abundant source, carries undeniable competitive advantages. It can reduce electricity costs for consumers by up to 90%, make businesses more competitive, and ease the budgets of Brazilian families.

Since 2012, the sector's expansion has generated over R$270 billion in investments, created 1,8 million green jobs, and prevented the emission of over 88 million tons of CO₂. These figures reflect the real impact of technology on the lives of Brazilians.

However, we cannot ignore the challenges. Reductions in renewable generation without adequate compensation to developers, coupled with difficulties connecting new systems, still represent obstacles that must be overcome.

The processing of Provisional Measures 1300/2025 and 1304/2025, which deal with the reform of the electricity sector, will be crucial to provide greater legal certainty, attract investment and accelerate the democratization of solar energy.

GoodWe is ready to make a decisive contribution to this process. With high-capacity hybrid solutions, long-duration storage systems, and advanced inverter technologies, we are ready to serve everything from homes to large industries, hospitals, and data centers.

We also believe that Brazilian agribusiness, the driving force behind the national economy, will play a central role in this energy revolution by adopting systems that ensure autonomy, cost reduction, and greater sustainability in the field.

The energy transition is not just an economic or technological movement: it is a social and environmental commitment. Brazil is uniquely positioned to lead this transformation, leveraging its solar, wind, and hydropower potential, combined with innovation in energy storage, green hydrogen, and artificial intelligence applied to the electricity sector.

At GoodWe, we see this moment as a historic opportunity. Our operations in the country are guided by the conviction that every megawatt generated cleanly is a step toward a more competitive, fair, and sustainable future.

Brazil has already proven its potential to be a leading player. Now, we need to join forces—private sector, government, and society—so that solar energy becomes not just an alternative, but the foundation of Brazil's new electricity grid.
