Renewable Energy Market In Brazil
The majority of renewable energy generated today in Brazil still comes from large hydropower plants, which account for 60.8% of the electricity matrix. However, this is expected to change in the coming years as installed capacities of wind and solar sources grow, the latter also in projects installed in homes and businesses.
Currently, the largest amount still comes from hydropower plants, which dominate the Brazilian electricity matrix. However, each year they lose ground to other clean energy sources, especially wind and solar. Their usage occurs both in large plants and in smaller projects installed in the homes and businesses of Brazilians who generate their own energy.
