A Intersolar South America, o largest solar energy event in Latin Americabrought together this year the main players in the sector to discuss and present technological innovations in the field of renewable energy in Brazil and around the world. During the event, SolarVolt announced the launch of the BOT (Build, Operate, Transfer) model. This model seeks to increase the savings of companies that already participate in the Free Energy Market by combining this solution with photovoltaic solar energy.
What is the BOT (Build, Operate, Transfer) model?
The BOT (Build, Operate, Transfer) model is a model in which a solar plant is built and operated by investors for a pre-determined period, which varies between 12 and 20 years. During this period, the customer enjoys the energy benefits from the start of the operation, without the need for an initial investment. After the end of the operating period, ownership of the system is transferred to the customer, who then has a long-term renewable energy source, at no additional cost.
Growth of the Live Energy Market in Brazil
More and more companies in Brazil are migrating to the free energy market. Only in January 2024, 2,168 companies have informed their distributors that they are leaving the regulated market. In total, 34,430 companies have already decided to become free consumers between 2024 and 2025. This data was released by ABRACEEL (Brazilian Association of Electric Energy Traders), based on information from ANEEL (National Electric Energy Agency).
This increase in migration is due to a recent change in legislation. With Ordinance 50/2022, small and medium-sized companies in Group A were authorized to migrate to the free market as of January of this year. Although the free market has existed for over 20 years, it was previously only available to large companies. Of the 34.4 thousand companies that decided to migrate to the free market, 95% (29,909) have an energy consumption below 500 kV, that is, they are small and medium-sized companies with energy costs above R$ 10 thousand per month.
Benefits of combining BOT and the Free Energy Market
The Solar Photovoltaic Energy BOT launched by SolarVolt allows customers who have already adopted the Free Energy Market to save even more. In the BOT model, a solar plant is built and operated by investors, and customers begin to enjoy the energy benefits from the beginning of the operation. After a period ranging from 12 to 20 years, ownership of the system is transferred to the customer, ensuring a long-term renewable energy source, at no additional costs.
Combining the advantages of the Free Energy Market with the generation of photovoltaic solar energy provides additional savings for companies, in addition to contributing to a more sustainable energy matrix. “The BOT model we are launching amplifies the benefits of the Free Energy Market and offers a long-term solution that is financially advantageous and environmentally responsible,” says Gabriel Guimarães, commercial director and partner at SolarVolt.
The launch of the BOT during Intersolar 2024 reflects SolarVolt’s commitment to developing energy solutions in Brazil. The BOT model offers an alternative for companies to expand their savings and explore new ways of using energy efficiently.

Unlocking the Power of Renewable Energy: The Rise of SolarVolt’s BOT Model and the Free Energy Market in Brazil
The recent Intersolar South America event brought together the largest players in the solar energy sector to discuss and present innovative solutions in the field of renewable energy. One of the most significant announcements made during the event was SolarVolt’s launch of the BOT (Build, Operate, Transfer) model, which seeks to increase the savings of companies that already participate in the Free Energy Market by combining this solution with photovoltaic solar energy [[1]].
What is the BOT (Build, Operate, Transfer) model?
The BOT model is a unique approach in which a solar plant is built and operated by investors for a pre-determined period, ranging from 12 to 20 years. During this period, the customer enjoys the energy benefits from the start of the operation, without the need for an initial investment. After the end of the operating period, ownership of the system is transferred to the customer, who then has a long-term renewable energy source, at no additional cost.
Growth of the Free Energy Market in Brazil
The Free Energy Market in Brazil has been experiencing rapid growth, with more and more companies migrating to this market. According to ABRACEEL (Brazilian Association of Electric Energy Traders), 2,168 companies informed their distributors that they were leaving the regulated market in January 2024, and a total of 34,430 companies have decided to become free consumers between 2024 and 2025 [[2]].
This increase in migration is due to a recent change in legislation. With Ordinance 50/2022, small and medium-sized companies in Group A were authorized to migrate to the free market as of January 2024.

This innovative solution is expected to revolutionize the renewable energy sector in Brazil and beyond.
Related Trends and Technologies
The growth of the renewable energy sector is driven by the increasing adoption of innovative technologies and solutions. For instance, microinverters like APsystems EZ1 [[2]]are becoming increasingly popular, allowing for more efficient and cost-effective solar energy harvesting. Additionally, the development of IoT and smart energy management systems, such as NodeRenogy [[3]], is enabling greater control and optimization of renewable energy systems.
Conclusion
The launch of SolarVolt’s BOT model and the growth of the Free Energy Market in Brazil mark a significant milestone in the adoption of renewable energy solutions. As companies continue to seek innovative ways to reduce their energy costs and environmental footprint, the combination of BOT and the Free Energy Market is poised to become a game-changer in the industry. With its potential to amplify savings and promote sustainability, this solution is expected to play a key role in shaping the future of renewable energy.
