How many solar modules did Brazil import in the fourth quarter?

The fourth quarter broke records with over 5GW of imports, as noted by Greener, a local solar analysis and advice company—that’s the most Brazil ever saw in three months. From November to December, China shipped nearly 4GW of solar modules to Brazil, becoming a huge part of Brazil’s import activity.

Does China Import solar panels to Brazil?

From November to December, China shipped nearly 4GW of solar modules to Brazil, becoming a huge part of Brazil’s import activity. This surge highlights how global the solar industry is and how much Brazil counts on Chinese production to reach its green energy goals.

Is Brazil embracing solar energy?

Brazil isn't just embracing solar energy—it’s revolutionizing its potential in the global energy sector. As we count down to the Solar World Congress 2025 in Fortaleza, let’s dive into Brazil’s solar energy history. Fifteen years ago, no one could have imagined that Brazil would become one of the world’s largest powers in photovoltaic solar energy.

Are small-scale solar systems still important in Brazil?

While overall imports shrank a bit, small-scale systems—those up to 5MW—still had a big impact on Brazil’s solar scene. They made up 65% of all imports this year, down from 75% in 2022, but they were still essential in spreading solar power across the nation. Brazil’s big solar farms had a great year in 2023, adding 4GW to the grid.
