The Northeast Closed The Year of 2024 as The Region with The Highest Proportional Growth in The Approval of Projects Related to Energy Transition in The Country

This advance reflects not only the natural potential of the region for renewable energies but also the strengthening of public policies aimed at decarbonization and sustainability.

In addition, the performance of the Northeast has surpassed, proportionally, all other Brazilian regions.

Regional Growth and Strategic Investments

While the Northeast stood out, the Midwest also showed significant advancement, with R$ 2 billion in approvals, a volume 16 times greater than in 2022.

Clean Energy and Efficient Use of Resources in The Northeast

The projects in the Northeast mainly involve the expansion of solar and wind energy plants, adding about 450 megawatts (MW) to the National Interconnected System (SIN).

According to Aloizio Mercadante, president of BNDES, Brazil is already the largest financer of clean energy in the world, with over US$ 36 billion invested since 2004.

As pointed out by him, this volume reflects not only the country’s ability to lead decarbonization but also its commitment to a green and resilient economy.

The Role of The Climate Fund in The Energy Transition

Created in 2009, the Climate Fund has established itself as one of the main tools for mitigating and adapting to the effects of climate change in Brazil.

The fund uses both reimbursable resources, through BNDES, and non-reimbursable resources, via MMA.

This allows support for everything from large energy infrastructure projects to small research and environmental innovation projects.

Therefore, the structure of the fund presents itself as an efficient and replicable model for other nations.

National Impact and Projections for The Future

Although all regions showed growth in 2024, the advance of the Northeast highlights the strategic role of the region in the Brazilian energy matrix.

With high solar and wind potential, as well as favorable terrain for the installation of renewable parks, the Northeast solidifies itself as a protagonist in the transition to a low-carbon economy.

Based on the performance of 2024, experts indicate that Brazil is likely to exceed R$ 15 billion in approvals for clean energy in 2025, if the growth trend continues.

Thus, the combination of public policies, targeted credit, and focus on sustainability puts the country in a leadership position in combating the global climate crisis.

A giant printer called the “Ferrari” of concrete has landed in Latin America and can already build a 120-square-meter house in just 48 hours, making the traditional construction site look like something from the last century.

Brazil will harvest a record crop of up to 357 million tons of grains, but it does not have the capacity to store a large part of it. The storage deficit has reached the highest level in history and is equivalent to almost the entire production of Argentina.

Four times faster than the Concorde, capable of taking passengers from New York to London in less than an hour at Mach 5.5, and with an engine that switches from turbojet to ramjet mid-flight at Mach 3.5, the Hermeus Quarterhorse went from paper to its first flight in just 19 months.

Under nearly 2 kilometers of ice in Antarctica, scientists have discovered an ancient landscape sculpted by rivers up to 60 million years ago, the size of Wales, preserved as a time capsule that could help predict the advance of ice towards the ocean.

She started by collecting oyster shells from restaurants and today she has already accumulated more than 10 tons to restore reefs, recover coastal habitats, and demonstrate how a common waste can become a tool for ocean conservation.

Bricklayers off the scaffolding? New system uses autonomous drones to position bricks and apply adhesive in the air, creating walls with two flying robots working as a team.

For the economist José Kobori, the USA gained a trump card to “blackmail” Brazil and undermine China’s influence by classifying the PCC and Comando Vermelho as terrorists, increasing the power to pressure companies, banks, and even Pix.

BYD Atto 2 DM-i flex prepares to debut in Brazil with a plug-in hybrid engine, national assembly in Camaçari, competitive pricing, and targets Creta and T-Cross in a battle that promises to heat up the compact SUV market.

Processors can become 1,000 times faster with a new device that uses light pulses, operates in 40 picoseconds, and reduces the heat that stalls data centers.

Noise in the sky frightened residents: NASA confirms that a meteor exploded over New England with a force equivalent to 230 tons of TNT

The paycheck that seemed impossible: São José employee receives R$ 7.94 after legal strike, while deductions by the City Hall affect over a thousand employees and become a target of inquiry in the City Council.
