About Intersolar South America

Intersolar South America is an energy industry event expected to take place August 31 – September 2, 2027 in Sao Paulo, Brazil. It runs for three days, opening on Tuesday and closing on Thursday. With more than 10 months to go, there is time to plan the booth, the budget and the meetings properly.

Shows like this one typically draw utility and grid operators, engineers, project developers, installers, procurement managers and policy specialists. For registration, exhibitor packages and the floor plan, go to the official website, intersolar.net.br.

What to expect at Intersolar South America

Energy shows bring together large operators and specialist suppliers. Conversations are technical, deals are large, and visitors often attend specific conference tracks and visit only a shortlist of exhibitors.

Over three days, traffic usually peaks on the first two days and thins out on the last one. The quieter final day is a good time for longer conversations, visiting other stands and meeting suppliers. Expect most visitors to be utility and grid operators and their colleagues, often with a short list of suppliers they want to see.

How exhibitors should prepare for Intersolar South America

Here is a working timeline counted back from the opening day, August 31, 2027 (expected date, so adjust once it is confirmed):

1. 16 weeks before (May 11, 2027)
   Confirm your booth space and read the exhibitor manual. Book hotels in Sao Paulo while rates are still normal.
2. 8 weeks before (Jul 6, 2027)
   Order booth services (power, internet, furniture, cleaning) before the early-rate deadlines, and send graphics to print.
3. 4 weeks before (Aug 3, 2027)
   Ship freight to the advance warehouse if the organizer offers one. Book meetings with the visitors you most want to see. Set up lead capture and train the team on it.
4. One week before (Aug 24, 2027)
   Confirm freight arrived, share the staffing schedule, charge every device, and test your lead capture app with Wi-Fi turned off.

Preparation tips for energy shows

• Identify the operators and developers you want to meet and request meetings before the show.
• Prepare technical data sheets and certifications for each market you serve.
• Brief the team on current policy and incentive changes, which come up in many conversations.

Booth tips for Intersolar South America

• Show performance data and installed references prominently; energy buyers trust track records.
• Qualify by project stage: planning, tender or construction.
• Keep a meeting area for longer technical discussions away from the aisle noise.
• Plan shifts of three to four hours. Standing and talking for three days wears people out, and tired staff let good leads walk past.
• If you expect local buyers in Brazil, bring key material in the local language as well as English, and have prices ready in the local currency.
• Capture every conversation the moment it ends: scan the badge or card, add a one-line note about what the visitor needs, and rate the lead hot, warm or cold. Notes written that evening are already half forgotten.

3. By Sep 16, 2027
