Centro De Exposições Imigrantes - São Paulo, Brasil
11 - 13 July 2012

ENERSOLAR+ BRASIL is the first international trade fair dedicated to the photovoltaic, thermal and concentrating solar (CSP) industry in Brazil, and will take place from 11 to 13 July 2012 at São Paulo.

ENERSOLAR BRASIL 2012 promotes the development of business opportunities throughout the Brazilian and South American solar industry, and features both domestic and international companies committed to contribute to the rapid growth and profitability of these markets. ENERSOLAR BRASIL 2012 expects more than 200 exhibitors and over 12,000 visitors.

Brazil, with a population of over 190 million and double the surface area of all of Europe, has been experiencing significant growth for over ten years and is, this year, becoming the sixth economic world power. Crossed in the north by the Equator and in the south by the Tropic of Capricorn, Brazil is the ideal market for developing solar energy.

Brazil depends on hydroelectricity for more than 3/4 of its electricity, but current government policies focus mainly on the improvement of energy efficiency, in both housing and industry, as well as increasing renewable sources such as solar energy, biomass and wind.

The total installed photovoltaic power capacity in Brazil is estimated to be between 40 and 60 MWp, of which 50% is for telecommunications systems and 50% for rural energy systems.

ENERSOLAR+ BRASIL 2012 will therefore be an important opportunity for all professionals of the sector interested in the important market of South America, which, in the near future, will undergo even more development.
ENERSOLAR+ BRASIL will be an annual event.

The event has been set up thanks to the joint venture between Artenergy Publishingand Fiera Milano, the latter having acquired the majority stakes of CIPA, the most important organizer of fairs in this South American country. ENERSOLAR+ BRASIL is the first step in the creation of the international network of ENERSOLAR+.
