Solar to add 13 GW in Brazil in 2025 amid signs of slowdown
Brazil is expected to add 13 GW of solar capacity in 2025, according to the Brazilian Photovoltaic Solar Energy Association (Absolar), but growth appears to be slowing
Daniel Lyrio: TBEA considers that Brazil's market potential is estimated at 5 GWh for the next three years, considering that we have the auction in 2025, with an average market [battery project] value of BRL 1.5 million/kWh, the number to be invested is around BRL 7.5 billion. Which applications should lead the adoption of energy storage in Brazil?
Brazil attracted $37 billion in energy-transition investment in 2024 (up from $35 billion in 2023), the seventh-highest figure globally and the second-highest among emerging markets outside of China. Historically, its investment mix has been heavily dominated by renewable energy and power grids.
Brazil is consistently one of the world's largest markets for investments related to the energy transition. Brazil attracted $37 billion in energy-transition investment in 2024 (up from $35 billion in 2023), the seventh-highest figure globally and the second-highest among emerging markets outside of China.
Brazil is consistently among the top countries for renewable energy additions. While solar is thriving globally, it is the small-scale sector that is doing particularly well in Brazil. These sub-5-megawatt installations have pushed Brazil into the top four countries for solar additions worldwide.
