PHOTOVOLTAIC POWER GENERATION

ITS IMPACT ON ENERGY QUALITY IN BRAZIL

Abstract

Through research into academic articles, this article describes the development of photovoltaic energy systems in Brazil as the main means of advancing the economy and sustainability. The study using graphs shows that the energy matrix is an important factor in the use of renewable energies in the country, which has a low number of solar panels, despite its great energy potential, given that the Brazilian territory has high solar irradiation values.  Data analysis shows that the use of inverters has better results in terms of cost and energy quality. Finally, it can be concluded that there is a favorable environment for the use of solar energy, but the lack of investment and government interest is slowing down this process.
