Brazil Has One of the Cleanest Energy Matrices in the World, with Investments in Renewable Energy Representing Over 80% of the Energy Generation Capacity in the Country’s Market.

The country is the 9th largest consumer and producer of renewable energy in the world, with a competitive and well-established regulatory and legal framework in the energy sector, with long-term energy purchase contracts (over 20 years), registered incentives, and a balance between public and private sector initiatives.

Opportunities in the Brazilian Renewable Energy Market

Opportunities in the renewable energy industry in Brazil range from the Regulated Market, with a successful auction model, to the Free Market, a growing and flexible corporate sourcing model that currently accounts for 30% of Brazil’s energy demand.

An increase of 1,000 TWh in electricity consumption is expected, which will generate the need for US $ 150 billion in investments in renewable energy by 2050.

Market Highlights

Renewable energy represents over 80% of the country’s electricity generation capacity – the 2nd in the world. It is estimated that electricity generation from wind and solar photovoltaic sources will increase to 150 GW by 2040, representing 44% of the Brazilian matrix.

In ethanol production, there was a 17% increase compared to 2017, reaching 32.3 billion liters in 2018, a new production record.

Investment Tracking Record

Brazil attracted around US $ 20 billion in FDI for renewable energies from 2009 to 2018. 1st recipient of FDI in renewable energies in Latin America 2009-2018 – 35.2%. 3rd recipient of FDI in renewable energies in the world 2009-2018 – 11.6%. Brazil is expected to reach US $ 150 billion in renewable investments by 2050.
