The document presents the work of Electric Sector Coalition, led by CEBDS and with technical support from PSR, which brought together more than 70 entities to discuss the future of energy in Brazil. The publication highlights that the country already has one of the cleanest electricity grids in the world — with 90% of energy from renewable sources such as hydroelectric, wind and solar power plants — and that the sector is responsible for less than 2% of national emissions, against a global average of 30%.
The study shows that Brazil has unique conditions to leading the global energy transition, taking advantage of its interconnected and reliable power grid, its abundance of renewable resources, and its large and stable consumer market. It also points out that electrify sectors such as transport and industry can reduce up to 18% of the country's net emissions.
Among the main challenges, the document cites the need to coherent public policies, more efficient price signals It is resilience to climate change. The Coalition proposes strategic actions to keep Brazilian energy clean, competitive and safe until 2050, strengthening the economy, generating jobs and positioning Brazil as a global reference in sustainable energy and decarbonization.
