Solar PV potential in Brazil by location
Below is the average daily output per kW of Solar PV installed for each season, along with the ideal solar panel tilt angles calculated for various locations in Brazil. Click on any location for more detailed information.
Explore the solar photovoltaic (PV) potential across 269 locations in Brazil, from Macapá to Rio Grande. We have utilized empirical solar and meteorological data obtained from NASA's POWER API to determine solar PV potential and identify the optimal panel tilt angles for these locations.
Feel free to contact us if you wish for us to include a general Solar PV Analysis for a certain city or location not already listed here for Brazil. We will be more than happy to manually add it for you.
"Assim como o sol abastece os painéis solares, o café é nosso combustível pra mandar ver na pesquisa e desenvolvimento." 😊

Solar Panel Tilt Angle in Brazil
So far based on Solar PV Analysis of 269 locations in Brazil, we've discovered that the ideal angle to tilt solar PV panels in Brazil varies between 27° from the horizontal plane facing North in Rio Grande and 1° from the horizontal plane facing North in Macapá.
These tilt angles are optimised for maximum annual PV output at each location for fixed-panel solar PV installations. If you click on one of the locations above, there is further detail on ideal seasonal tilt angles as well (in case your solar panels are adjustable).
Depending on where you are based in Brazil, the ideal angle to tilt your solar panels will vary by approx 26 degrees (between 27° from the horizontal plane facing North and 1° from the horizontal plane facing North).
Brazil solar PV Stats as a country
Brazil ranks 13th in the world for cumulative solar PV capacity, with 13,708 total MW's of solar PV installed. This means that 2.50% of Brazil's total energy as a country comes from solar PV (that's 31st in the world). Each year Brazil is generating 64 Watts from solar PV per capita (Brazil ranks 47th in the world for solar PV Watts generated per capita). [source]
Are there incentives for businesses to install solar in Brazil?
Yes, there are several incentives for businesses wanting to install solar energy in Brazil. The Brazilian government offers a range of tax credits and other financial incentives to encourage the adoption of renewable energy sources such as solar power. These include reduced import taxes on solar equipment, accelerated depreciation of investments in renewable energy projects, and preferential financing from public banks. Additionally, some states offer additional incentives such as subsidies or grants for businesses that install solar systems.
Do you have more up to date information than this on incentives towards solar PV projects in Brazil? Please reach out to us and help us keep this information current. Thanks!
