Wind power generation is essential to reduce the use of fossil resources and, consequently, the emission of greenhouse gases (GHG). Currently, the National Interconnected System (SIN) has about 9971 wind turbines in operation, the sixth largest network in the world ranking, and 80% of Brazilian...

Dieses Grünbuch möchte als Katalysator wirken, um auf allen Ebenen der europäischen Gesellschaft – sei es auf EU-Gemeinschaftsebene, sei es auf einzelstaatlicher, regionaler oder kommunaler Ebene – auf eine erneuerte Energieeffizienz-Initiative hinzuwirken. ... Wettbewerbsfähigkeit und...

This paper applies the dynamic linear model (DLM) estimated based on the Bayesian approach to project electricity consumption for five Brazilian regional units. The appeal for the use of DLM in the case of energy consumption is due to the fact that in this model the adjustment occurs in the unit...

This paper discusses the insertion of distributed microgeneration of electricity using solar photovoltaics. We present, briefly, the international experience implementing solar energy programs, comparing their goals with the Brazilian situation. An evaluation of the economic attractiveness of...

The Brazilian semi arid is often represented as a dry-climate region with poor socioeconomic indicators. Moreover, this region is likely to suffer from the water shortage in the future as a result of climate changes that the world is facing. The reduction of water supplies has recently caused...

The BRICS are characterized by the diversity of energy systems, socioeconomic structures, and institutional frameworks. Therefore, the energy transition process assumes particular trends in each country. Despite the high share of fossil fuels in the energy mix, the BRICS are engaged in promoting...

In this study, we identify the hydrogen investments and the main routes of hydrogen production in Brazil. We focus on sustainable hydrogen that is obtained from renewable energy sources or using carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) to neutralize emissions. The identified results...
