Summary
Markets across Latin America
are expected to grow
significantly in terms of
annually deployed solar PV
power generation capacities in
the near and mid-term.
Sustained, long-term demand
is a key feature of the region
due to favorable conditions
including high solar irradiation
levels, high retail electricity
tariffs, and sustained economic
growth that combine strong
with globally reducing PV
system prices. This session will
provide insights into the
demand dynamics in selected
markets. This session is jointly
organized with GTM Research
and will draw heavily on the
company’s Latin America PV
Playbook report.
