Brazil''s build-out of wind and solar power has been fast enough to meet and exceed growth in electricity demand over the last decade. This has reduced the need for additional fossil
On the one hand, Brazil''s energy transition is well under way. The country has the cleanest electricity generation among Group of 20 members and has seen a significant
Thanks largely to hydro, wind and now solar, 88.2% of Brazil''s electricity already comes from renewables — wind and solar alone delivered 24% in
Grid connection queues in Brazil are offering new opportunities for energy storage and hybrid systems and opening new energy business models. Renewable energy companies
Wind and solar power generated more than a third of Brazil''s electricity in August. This marks the first time these renewable sources
Wind and solar power generated more than a third of Brazil''s electricity in August. This marks the first time these renewable sources have crossed that threshold, according to
One of the most important regulatory issues in Brazil''s 2025 Agenda is the restriction of solar and wind plant energy due to the lack of
In Brazil, solar photovoltaic dominates the distributed generation sector, representing 99% of the country''s total distributed generation capacity. Small hydroelectric and
Although Brazil does not need to triple renewables to stay on the 1.5°C pathway, our analysis suggests that solar capacity would need to triple
Thanks largely to hydro, wind and now solar, 88.2% of Brazil''s electricity already comes from renewables — wind and solar alone delivered 24% in 2024. This gives Brazil the lowest per
Although Brazil does not need to triple renewables to stay on the 1.5°C pathway, our analysis suggests that solar capacity would need to triple and wind capacity double by 2030 compared
One of the most important regulatory issues in Brazil''s 2025 Agenda is the restriction of solar and wind plant energy due to the lack of capacity of the transmission
To decarbonize other sectors, Brazil must increase its electrification levels, which is currently below 20%. This will require greater deployment of wind and solar.
The utility-scale segment is expected to experience the most growth and investment as the focus shifts towards using energy storage as a transmission asset to support the expansion of the
