Resumo

The expansion of the Brazilian energy matrix foresees the sharing of renewable sources with 48% of the internal energy supply in the next 10 years, in accordance with the Brazilian commitments to the United Nations Paris agreement on climate change (NDC). Among the various alternatives for renewable sources stands out the solar, which experienced a national growth at more than 250% in the last two years. In order to support this robust growth and to provide a reliable source of solar data, the mapping of the Brazilian solar potential was carried out using a radiative transfer model adjusted for the tropical climate in Brazil and employing 17 years of satellite data.
