Energy Transition in Brazil: Innovation, Opportunities, and Risks
Summary
The document presents findings from the EEIST programme in Brazil, arguing that risk-opportunity analysis (ROA) is a more effective tool for policymakers than traditional cost-benefit analysis (CBA) when assessing the green transition. It highlights how Brazil's specific financial and landscape dimensions can facilitate low-carbon re-industrialisation, supporting these claims with empirical and modelling case studies.
Key insights
- The report argues that risk-opportunity analysis (ROA) is superior to traditional cost-benefit analysis (CBA) for assessing the green transition because it better accounts for the dynamic nature of low-carbon re-industrialisation and the interactions between policies and an evolving economy.
- Brazil's specific financial situation and landscape characteristics provide opportunities for the country to pursue an effective low-carbon re-industrialisation strategy.
