The capital of Mato Grosso, Cuiabá, as well as the rest of the state, has intense weather conditions throughout the year. City of warm weather and with predominantly sunny sky all year round, Cuiabá has a great potential for the implantation of solar photovoltaic energy, although it is not located in the area of Brazil that receives more radiation. This study aims to evaluate this potential, considering the increase in the demand for electric energy in Brazil and the importance of the use of renewable energy in the current scenario. The evaluation was done through the irradiation data from the SunData software, both in the horizontal plane and in the ideal inclined plane for the generation of energy, and from them were calculated the capacity factor of two solar panels for the incident radiation in the urban area of Cuiabá/MT. In addition, a local scale potential analysis was performed from 3D modeling generated by Autodesk Revit software jointly with the Insight Analysis plug-in.
