Photovoltaic Products
On March 21, 2022, the Brazil National Institute of Metrology, Quality, and Technology INMETRO issued Ordinance no.140/2022, which established the criteria for the Conformity Assessment Requirements for Equipment for Generation, Conditioning, and Storage of Electric Energy in Photovoltaic Systems, through the mechanism of the labeling, for use of the National Etiquette of Conservation of Energy -ENCE. The aim is to confirm energy efficiency and an appropriate level of security. The Labeling requirements are applied to Photovoltaic Modules, charge and/or discharge Controllers, Batteries, and Inverters.
From 24 months from the effective date of this Ordinance, all photovoltaic products entering the Brazilian market need to pass relevant testing and be registered with INMETRO according to the requirement of the new ordinance. From 36 months from the date of publication of this Ordinance, establishments that carry out distribution or trade activities must sell, in the national market, only equipment for the generation, conditioning and storage of electric energy in photovoltaic systems in accordance with the provisions contained in this Ordinance.
ATIC has been authorized by major Brazilian local certification bodies (OCPs) to perform INMETRO certification activities such as factory audits, sampling, and product testing in China and Asia area. We serve more than 400 Chinese or Asian manufactures for INMETRO certification each year.
