HOME / Brazil solar power generation time table - CAPTURED ENERGY SOLAR (PTY) LTDDistributed solar generation capacity grew from less than 1 gigawatt (GW) in 2018 to 40 GW in 2025 through June, accounting for 43% of all electricity capacity additions over that period. In 2012, Brazil implemented net metering policies, which have recently contributed to large increases in distributed solar generation capacity.
In the last five years, Brazil has increased its solar photovoltaic energy generating capacity by more than 6-fold. In 2020, the country's installed solar PV capacity stood at 8.5 gigawatts. By the end of 2024, this had grown to roughly 53 gigawatts.
In 2020, the country's installed solar PV capacity stood at 8.5 gigawatts. By the end of 2024, this had grown to roughly 53 gigawatts. The Brazilian solar sector is experiencing a rapid expansion, with planned utility-scale installations amounting to more than 139 gigawatts as of February 2025.
During the era of isolated systems, some companies began to recognize Brazil's potential for photovoltaic generation. But it wasn't only the private sector that became interested in this source—the public sector also began seriously considering the possibility of expanding the electricity matrix with photovoltaic solar energy.
