Webinar on Oct 27 to Discuss Latin America's Solar PV Boom
A webinar is set for October 27th to discuss the future of solar photovoltaic (PV) energy production in Latin America. The event, hosted by an unidentified firm, comes amidst a boom in PV installations, particularly in Brazil. IHS Markit predicts a significant increase in PV capacity additions across the region this year.
The webinar, scheduled for 09:00 AM Brazil Time / 19:00 PM CST, will delve into the opportunities and challenges for solar PV deployment in Latin America. This follows IHS Markit's revised forecast, which now anticipates 16.5 GW of PV capacity additions across the region in 2022.
The improved prospects for Latin America are largely driven by Brazil, which is expected to add 9.7 GW of PV capacity this year. This surge in installations is attributed to a boom in distributed PV systems in the country.
While specific details about the firms and institutions involved in the upcoming meeting remain unclear, the event promises to shed light on the burgeoning solar PV industry in Latin America. The region's PV capacity is expected to grow significantly in 2022, with Brazil leading the charge.
