In February, the generation of centralized solar energy reached the mark of 2.956 MWmed, marking a notable 41% growth compared to the same period of the previous year, according to data provided by CCEE (Electric Energy Trading Chamber).
Furthermore, thermoelectric energy production also had a significant performance, achieving 6.476 MWmed, which represents an increase of around 30,03% compared to that recorded in February of the previous year.
O Canal Solar has been warning about the continued increase in fossil energy generation in Brazil since last year.
As hydraulic plants presented a positive performance, with a 6% growth and a total production of 58.805 MWmed. On the other hand, the wind power suffered a 5,7% drop, totaling 9.089 MWmed.
In total, energy generation in SIN (National Interconnected System) increased by 7,1% in February, totaling 77.307 MWmed.
