In Third Place in the Global Renewable Energy Ranking, Brazil Has the Capacity to Stop Importing Energy and Generate Various Jobs
In terms of renewable energy, Brazil ranks third in the global alternative energy sources ranking, including bioenergy, wind, solar, hydroelectric, and geothermal. According to a survey conducted, if Brazil continues to invest in clean energy such as solar and wind, 1.2 million jobs will be created by 2025. Currently, China and the United States lead the generation ranking.

Energy Generation Through Renewable Sources:
In terms of solar energy, last year the country entered the ranking of the 20 largest producers of photovoltaic energy, occupying the 16th position. Brazil is one of the only significant solar producers in Latin America known in the market, moving up five positions in the comparison between 2018 and 2019.
In turn, the wind source makes Brazil the seventh country with the largest installed capacity in the sector. This means that about 30 million Brazilian households receive this clean energy supply every month, consolidating its position as the second largest source of electricity in Brazil.

The world has bet on green hydrogen as the fuel of the future, but now faces the side effect: producing 1 kilogram requires about 9 liters of ultrapure water, and the largest projects on the planet are precisely in the driest regions of the Earth, where water is already scarce for people.
Job Creation:
The labor market in the renewable sources system is very vast, with investments made in the sector, costs, the competitiveness of the investment, and system updates also having a positive impact.
According to a report from the World Economic Forum, “Competition for the end user is likely to increase the quality of services offered, which may encourage improvements across the entire value chain.”
