This text for discussion is part of a research aimed to understand the institutional constraints to the implementation of investment in infrastructure in contemporary Brazil and to propose public policy improvement. The rationale for their implementation is that there is evidence that indicate...

This study describes the relationship between GHG emissions and a set of economics and environmental variables in the energy sector of the 27 Brazilian states, during the period 2010 to 2020. The system Generalized Moments Method (system GMM) was used to verify the influence, in particular, of...

This study analyzes the recent trajectory and regional characteristics of electricity consumption among low-income families in Brazil, using data from beneficiaries of the Tarifa Social de Energia Elétrica (TSEE) program. It also seeks to assess the impacts of restrictive measures and...

This paper investigates the price elasticity of Brazilian residential electricity demand for 2012-2016. The estimations use random and fixed effects panel data and impulse response function in a VAR/VECM model for time series analysis. Furthermore, we analyze the consumers in two categories, Low...
