Crucial intelligence to understand the changing dynamics of the Brazilian energy market
Brazil leads South America in the clean energy revolution with a power market dominated by hydro generation. However, reliance on hydro comes with challenges: It is notably sensitive to precipitation patterns and climate events which could lead to an increased dependence on thermal fossil-fuelled plants.
Nevertheless, significant renewables growth—mainly solar PV and wind—currently accounts for 30% of the overall installed capacity and is anticipated to lead the way in future capacity expansion. Capitalise on emerging opportunities with our services, keeping up-to-date with market trends and evolving policies.
