Introduction
Currently the solar energy plays just a marginal role in Brazil’s energy supply. The almost endless solar resources has no market for small scale solar systems.However,the new Net Metering regulation 482, introduced by the Brazilian electricity sector regulatory body ANEEL, has finally opened the doors to tap a vast potential for decentralized small scale electricity generation up to 1 MW. It is a big step for Brazil´s renewable energy sector and great opportunities for German technologies in the Brazilian market.
The cooperation of the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH, acting on behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), with Brazil in the field of sustainable development is helping the Brazilian partners to develop new ways of tapping the enormous potential for using renewable energies and to promote energy efficiency, particularly in industry and buildings. GIZ provides advice on strategy development, support for developing management and cooperation structures, and technical expertise.

In 2012, the first Brazilian photovoltaics pilot project, the solar-powered stadium Pituaçu in Bahia state was inaugurated. This successful venture, implemented by the local energy provider COELBA and supported by Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH, established further progress to increase the share of photovoltaic-generated electricity in the Brazilian energy system. Consequently, ANEEL introduced a Net-Metering system within a new regulation for decentralized small scale electricity generators up to 1 MW.
