W+M Series International Markets: Brazil and Germany Move Closer Together
Food crisis, climate crisis, energy crisis and difficult trade relations with authoritarian regimes: Brazil can play an important role in a global reorientation of the German industry. After all, Brazil is one of the largest agricultural producers, its tropical forests act as a global carbon sink, and it offers unique conditions as a supplier of green energy.

Brasiliens PV-Markt im Wettlauf mit der Zeit
DIMAS, J. (2022)
Branche kompakt Brasilien Solarenergie, Germany Trade and Invest - Gesellschaft für Außenwirtschaft und Standortmarketing mbH (Hrsg.), Berlin.
Brazil's PV market in a race against time!
The year 2022 is again record-breaking. Expiring subsidies lead to pull-forward effects. The long-term outlook remains cautiously positive.
Expansion is increasingly driven by the free market. With around 12 gigawatts or 69 percent of installed capacity, distributed PV generation is outstripping centralized generation. Meltdown of subsidies creates pressure on advanced projects. Suppliers and service providers could reach their capacity limits.

Chile: Energy transition as an opportunity
Chile's energy sector is reinventing itself. The government is ambitiously driving forward the energy transition. The system change will be accompanied by the expansion of renewable energies and power grids as well as investments in energy efficiency. Innovative solutions for storage, off-grid systems and green fuels are also needed. In the long term, fossil-fuel power plants and their infrastructure will have to be scaled back.
