O Brazil reached, this Friday (12), the mark of 2 million own solar energy generation systems installed in residential propertiesAccording data of ANEEL (National Electric Energy Agency)
In total, there are already more than 13,8 GW of installed power on residential rooftops and that together they benefit more than 2,5 million UCs (consumer units) supplied by solar sources throughout the country.
Currently, the Residential consumption class already s for almost 80% of distributed micro and mini generation photovoltaic systems installed throughout the national territory.
Next come the commercial, rural and industrial categories, with 268,1 thousand, 220,2 thousand and 40 thousand photovoltaic systems, respectively, as shown in the image below:
According to ANEEL, state with the largest number of power plants GD (distributed generation) solar is São Paulo, over 342 thousand connections established in 100% of its municipalities.
Rio Grande do Sul and Minas Gerais, with more than 200 solar DG photovoltaic systems, in addition to Paraná, Bahia and Rio de Janeiro (all with over 100 residential connections) are also highlights in the modality.
Expansion
In February of this year, the IBGE (Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics) released data involving the number of households that exist in the country.
The numbers show that Brazil has just over 72 million homes, of which almost 60 million are of the “house type” – which only shows that GD solar still has a large growth margin in the residential segment.
According to a Gustavo Tegon, institutional director of BelEnergy and secretary of solar energy at RING (National Clean Energy Institute), Many properties can and should still be explored by professionals working in the sector, mainly by integrators.
“Solar energy proves, once again, to be an extremely profitable investment and accessible to all social classes in the country. We reached this huge milestone, knowing that we still have millions of consumer units to develop new projects”, he highlighted.
