This study analyzes two CSP-PV hybrid configurations—parabolic trough and solar tower—in diverse Brazilian climatic conditions. . A heat wave drove Brazil's power demand up to a record high of 102 GW last week. However, it also affected solar power generation and pushed PV module operating temperatures to up to 60 C. A heat wave that passed through Brazil earlier this month pushed energy consumption in the country to record. . Brazil is facing the most intense drought period in recent history according to the Cemaden (National Center for Monitoring Natural Disasters). A lack of rain affects directly to hydroelectric plants, responsible for more than 50% of the energy matrix Brazilian, which with the reduction of. . The total installed solar power in Brazil was estimated at 53. 9 GW at February 2025, which consists of about 21. 9% of the country's electricity matrix.
