On the one hand, Brazil’s energy transition is well under way. The country has the cleanest electricity generation among Group of 20 members and has seen a significant increase in wind and solar generation in the past few years. Energy storage is expected to take off soon.
With more than a century of use and with a large installed capacity, the electric energy sector in Brazil has a complex network of transmission lines that runs through Brazil, allowing a family’s refrigerator in the interior of São Paulo to work with energy generated by a hydroelectric plant in the north of the country.
In the light of the current moment of transformation of the electricity sector in Brazil and elsewhere, with a growing uptake of utility-scale wind and solar power plants, this work shows that the temporal complementary of wind and solar resources in the Brazilian Northeast is consistent and it can have a major role in the optimal portfolio design.
Provided by the Springer Nature SharedIt content-sharing initiative Large-scale wind and solar photovoltaic infrastructures are rapidly expanding in Brazil. These low-carbon technologies can exacerbate land struggles rooted in historical inequities in landownership, lack of regulation and weak governance.

Wind has been recognised across government ministries as a vector for Brazil’s new energy economy, endorsed by important ministries such as the Ministry of Mines and Energy, Ministry of Finance and Ministry of Development, Industry and Foreign Trade. The Brazilian wind production chain in the last three years, has been showing signs of weakening.
The global solar storage container market is experiencing explosive growth, with demand increasing by over 200% in the past two years. Pre-fabricated containerized solutions now account for approximately 35% of all new utility-scale storage deployments worldwide. North America leads with 40% market share, driven by streamlined permitting processes and tax incentives that reduce total project costs by 15-25%. Europe follows closely with 32% market share, where standardized container designs have cut installation timelines by 60% compared to traditional built-in-place systems. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 45% CAGR, with China's manufacturing scale reducing container prices by 18% annually. Emerging markets in Africa and Latin America are adopting mobile container solutions for rapid electrification, with typical payback periods of 3-5 years. Major projects now deploy clusters of 20+ containers creating storage farms with 100+MWh capacity at costs below $280/kWh.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving solar storage container performance while reducing costs. Next-generation thermal management systems maintain optimal operating temperatures with 40% less energy consumption, extending battery lifespan to 15+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $80/kWh to $45/kWh since 2023. Smart integration features now allow multiple containers to operate as coordinated virtual power plants, increasing revenue potential by 25% through peak shaving and grid services. Safety innovations including multi-stage fire suppression and gas detection systems have reduced insurance premiums by 30% for container-based projects. New modular designs enable capacity expansion through simple container additions at just $210/kWh for incremental capacity. These innovations have improved ROI significantly, with commercial projects typically achieving payback in 4-7 years depending on local electricity rates and incentive programs. Recent pricing trends show 20ft containers (1-2MWh) starting at $350,000 and 40ft containers (3-6MWh) from $650,000, with volume discounts available for large orders.
