Biomassa: A Energia Firme que o Brasil Precisa para Liderar a Transição Global
Bioenergy, Biomass, COP 30, Energy Transition
While the world’s eyes turn to intermittent sources such as solar and wind power, Brazil holds within its fields and industries a sleeping giant, ready to awaken and lead the next phase of the global energy transition: biomass. With COP30 in Belém approaching, the country is in a unique position to showcase not only its potential but also a consolidated model of energy security rooted in one of its greatest strengths: agribusiness.
Biomassa cresce na matriz energética mas enfrenta barreiras para expansão
Bioenergy, Biomass, Energy Transition
Bioelectricity is gaining momentum in Brazil, accounting for 9% of the country’s power supply, with sugarcane bagasse alone responsible for 75% of bioenergy generation. However, despite its massive potential, the sector still struggles with regulatory and market barriers that hinder its full expansion.
Biogas, Biomass, Biomethane, Renewable Energy Sources, Sem categoria, Sustainability, Waste Energy Recovery, Waste-to-Energy
Urban solid waste management (USW) is an increasing challenge in Brazil, especially with population growth and accelerated urbanization. An effective solution to mitigate environmental impacts while simultaneously generating energy is waste-to-energy (WTE) recovery. However, Brazil is significantly behind in adopting this technology, particularly when compared to developed countries.
Energia verde impulsiona a indústria brasileira rumo à descarbonização e redução de custos
Bioenergy, Biomass, Clean Energy, Green Energy, Sustainability
Green energy is revolutionizing Brazilian industry, promoting decarbonization and reducing operational costs. With 87.9% of electricity generated in Brazil in 2023 coming from renewable sources, the country stands out in the global scenario of sustainable energy transition.
Termelétricas no Brasil: Essenciais, mas em Transformação
Bioenergy, Biomass, Energy Transition, Thermoelectric
Thermal power plants occupy a strategic position in Brazil’s energy matrix, serving as a sort of “Plan B” for renewable sources and ensuring the stability of the national electrical system.
Termelétricas no Brasil: papel crucial em tempos de crise hídrica
Biomass, Projects for Thermoelectric Plants, Thermoelectric, Water Crisis
Thermoelectric plants play a crucial role in Brazil's energy matrix, especially in times of water crisis, when hydroelectric plants are compromised. Despite being a reliable source, these plants, which use fuels such as natural gas, coal and biomass, have a significant environmental impact, mainly due to greenhouse gas emissions. With the increase in demand for energy, thermoelectric plants are gaining ground in the energy scenario, but Brazil seeks to balance their use with the expansion of renewable sources, aiming for a more sustainable future.
