Sistema fotovoltaico off-grid com baterias em zona rural – estudo de caso

Fernando Carvalho Assunção da Silva, Fernando Nunes Belchior, Marcelo Nunes Fonseca · 2025 · OBSERVATÓRIO DE LA ECONOMÍA LATINOAMERICANA

Summary. Rural producers in Goiás, Brazil face significant losses from power outages that spoil stored food and kill livestock. This case study compares three energy systems for a rural property: grid electricity with backup generator, grid with off-grid solar, and grid with off-grid solar plus batteries. Financial analysis using NPV, IRR, and levelized cost of electricity shows that solar with battery storage delivers the best long-term viability despite requiring nine times higher initial investment than traditional grid-plus-generator systems.
