Energy transition refers to the transformation of the energy sector, currently reliant on fossil fuels, towards a carbon-neutral energy matrix. Through diversification, the aim is to reduce dependence on fossil energy sources and promote the utilization of renewable energies. The growth of photovoltaic (PV) energy sheds light on pertinent issues within the sector, such as employability and gender diversity. In Brazil, the sector grapples with prejudices, as 64% of female professionals are subjected to sexist comments, and 49% experience discrimination in the workplace. Balancing personal and family life, especially concerning childcare responsibilities, also presents a barrier, as a significant portion of caregiving responsibilities for home and family falls on women. Gender-based violence and racial inequality are pervasive issues, creating substantial impediments for women, with 57% having experienced some form of violence, and 71.7% having faced discrimination in their professional environment. The evidence generated aims to inform decision-making in education, health, social assistance, ood security and nutrition, and decent work, addressing the needs of groups in situations of greater vulnerability and promoting gender, race, and ethnic equity throughout the lifespan. The "Women in Energy+" seal seeks to develop a comprehensive and effective methodology for assessing and recognizing a gender equity seal in PV energy companies. The objective is to promote gender equity within organizations, identify and acknowledge inclusive and diverse best practices, and encourage the adoption of policies and practices that foster equal opportunities and value all genders in the workplace.
