During the World Economic Forum, held in Davos, Switzerland, the Brazilian government presented its strategy for the global energy transition, highlighting initiatives that position the country as a leader in the development of clean energy. The Minister of Mines and Energy, Alexandre Silveira, represented Brazil in a series of meetings with global leaders, businesspeople and investors, highlighting the legislative advances and regulatory frameworks that make the country attractive for new investments in the sector.
Regulatory frameworks and attracting investments in clean energy
Brazil arrived in Davos with a clear message: it is ready to be one of the main global destinations for clean energy investments. Silveira highlighted recent laws approved by the government, such as those regulating green hydrogen, offshore wind and the Fuel of the Future, consolidating the legal and regulatory security needed to attract foreign capital.
In the first two years of the current administration, auctions aimed at energy transition secured R$60 billion in investments in the National Integrated Electric Energy System . In addition, the government is promoting the modernization of the energy distribution sector, with a decree that should double investments in the segment, reaching R$120 billion by 2028.
Fuel of the Future: An Innovative Vision for Global Decarbonization
The Fuel of the Future Law , approved in 2024, gained international attention during the Forum. Presented as an example of an effective public policy for decarbonization, it provides for initiatives aimed at expanding biofuels in the energy matrix and neutralizing carbon emissions .
The goal established by the new legislation is to mobilize R$260 billion by 2037 , with the potential to neutralize 705 million tons of CO2 in the same period. Among the measures, the most notable are the increase in the blending of biodiesel and ethanol in land transport, the promotion of biomethane and the introduction of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF).
With these advances, Brazil reaffirms its leadership in the global clean energy scenario , combining sustainability and economic competitiveness in a virtuous cycle that attracts the attention of global investors. The commitment to the energy transition presented in Davos consolidates the country as one of the main players in building a greener and more sustainable future.
