Mapeamento de Financiamento Climático Internacional para o Brasil

International climate finance to Brazil averaged R$ 26.6 billion per year in 2021–2022, an 84% increase from 2019–2020. Growth was primarily driven by the energy sector, specifically solar and wind power, and a significant rise in private commercial financing. While Western Europe, led by France, was the primary source, the AFOLU sector—responsible for most of Brazil's emissions—received only 11% of total funding, mostly through public multilateral sources.

• International climate finance for Brazil reached an annual average of R$ 26.6 billion in 2021–2022, representing an 84% increase compared to the 2019–2020 period.
• Western Europe was the leading provider of international climate finance to Brazil in 2021–2022, accounting for 50% of the mapped resources (R$ 13.3 billion/year), with France being the top individual country contributor at 13% of the total.
• Public sources provided 58% of the finance (R$ 15.4 billion/year), dominated by multilateral Development Finance Institutions (DFIs) which mobilized 71% of public funding, mostly through commercial-rate credit.
• Private international climate finance grew fourfold between 2019–2020 and 2021–2022, reaching 42% of the total (R$ 11.2 billion/year), led by commercial financial institutions and corporations.
• Commercial instruments (credit and equity) represented 89% of flows in 2021–2022, while grants and concessional credit decreased by 43% compared to 2019–2020.
• The energy sector was the primary recipient, concentrating 53% of resources (R$ 14.0 billion/year) and driving 72% of the total growth in international finance between the two periods.
• Solar and wind power generation accounted for 80% of the energy sector's funding, with solar alone receiving R$ 7.9 billion/year, a nearly sevenfold increase from 2019–2020.
• Despite being responsible for nearly 75% of Brazil's greenhouse gas emissions, the AFOLU sector received only 11% of international climate finance (R$ 2.9 billion/year), with forests receiving only 2% of the total international funding.
• Transport sector funding reached R$ 2.9 billion/year, with 94% concentrated in the São Paulo metro, specifically Line 6 (R$ 1.4 billion/year via PPP) and Line 2 (R$ 1.4 billion/year via CAF credit).
• Mitigation-exclusive projects received 80% of total funding (R$ 21.4 billion/year), while adaptation-exclusive projects received only 5% (R$ 1.4 billion/year), with the latter being 89% funded by public actors.
