Conteúdo:	Energy exclusion in the Amazon imposes barriers to the socioeconomic development of riverine communities, affecting the açaí value chain. Photovoltaic solar energy is a promising solution; however, its insertion in isolated communities with a focus on strengthening the açaí chain is still a challenge. This research aims to use photovoltaic solar energy as an integration mechanism for productive activities and a better quality of life for riverside families in the Brazilian Amazon. This study was conducted in the Ilha das Cinzas Community, in Gurupá/PA, starting with a rapid participatory diagnosis to understand the characteristics of the families. Strategic planning using the SWOT methodology was used to define action plans to enhance the insertion of solar technology. A new photovoltaic system configuration adaptable to the energy demands of families, capable of meeting both daily and motor loads was developed. In addition, the action plans included training residents and the sharing of experiences with other communities, ensuring greater success in technology transfer. This study demonstrates that the socioeconomic development of riverine communities can be achieved through the insertion of new technologies adapted to their reality, accompanied by the participation and training of the actors involved.
