Brazil wind power generation and energy storage

4 FAQs about [Brazil wind power generation and energy storage]

Are wind and solar power reshaping Brazil''s energy mix?

Wind and solar power are also reshaping the country’s energy mix. In 2024, they generated 24% of Brazil’s electricity, more than double their share from five years earlier. Solar power grew from just over 1% of generation in 2019 to 9.6% in 2024, while wind climbed from 8.8% to 15% over the same period.

How important is wind & solar in Brazil?

But wind and solar are an increasingly important part of the mix, having rocketed from just 4 per cent (or 8 gigawatts) of Brazil’s total generation capacity in 2015 to two-fifths (or 99GW) this year, according to data from consultancy Aurora Energy Research. It calculates that $78bn was invested over that period.

What is the future of electricity generation in Brazil?

Wind generation is expected to reach 13% of the electricity matrix by the end of 2029, while solar generation is expected to double. Hydropower has been the leading Brazilian energy source for electricity generation for several decades. This is due to its economic competitiveness and its potential at the national level.

How big is Brazil''s electricity sector?

Investment in the Brazilian electricity sector is expected to reach over $100 billion by 2029, including utility-scale generation, distributed generation, transmission, and distribution projects. Brazil’s electricity matrix is one of the cleanest in the world and Brazil is committed to continuing its support for renewable energy projects.
