Renewable energy development in Brazil and Mexico

Overview

The renewable energy landscape in Brazil and Mexico is characterized by both regulatory challenges and infrastructure expansion. In Brazil, the Senate has addressed bottlenecks in renewable energy growth, specifically noting the need for modernized transmission networks and regulations for offshore wind and green hydrogen. Concerns were raised regarding high electricity costs, with Senator Tereza Cristina stating that 83% of the industrial sector reports a loss of competitiveness due to these costs.

Simultaneously, industrial developments are advancing in the region. In Mexico, the Barajas Solar project in Coahuila, promoted by Armería New Energy, has moved into the environmental assessment stage. This project includes 130.3 MWp of solar capacity and a 103.5 MWh lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) battery storage system.

In Brazil, SecPower has commenced production of LFP batteries in Cambuí, Minas Gerais, with an annual capacity of up to 396 MWh, marking a move toward verticalizing its logistics and technical support capabilities.
