Opportunity for Young Leaders in the Energy Sector with the Young Energy Program.
Brasília, May 15, 2024 – The energy sector is at the heart of the global energy transition agenda, with the urgency to tackle the climate crisis through the use of renewable sources. Currently, the energy sector is responsible for 85% of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and is seeking ways to accelerate the decarbonization process. Brazil, with 48% of its energy matrix and 92% of its electric matrix coming from renewable sources, leads this movement thanks to its diversity of natural resources.
Challenges and Innovations in the Energy Sector
Despite the advancements, Brazil still faces significant challenges in its regulatory and corporate system. Generational transformation is essential, driven by the need for innovation and sustainable energy transition. Training new leaders with market experience and knowledge of global trends is crucial for companies to stand out.
