(BrasilEnergia) Brazil already has three ports – Açu (RJ), Pecém (CE) and Rio Grande (RS) – in the process of adapting to receive vessels transporting equipment and providing support for offshore wind projects on its coast. This information was provided by Admiral Wilson Pereira de Lima Filho. . Offshore wind energy represents an opportunity for Brazil to accelerate its energy transition, increase its energy security, industrial competitiveness and investment attraction. With a technical potential exceeding 1,200 GW and a vast coastline, Brazil is well-positioned to lead in the development. . Brazil holds a technical offshore wind potential of over 1,200 GW and – with offshore wind strategy and policies, permitting regulations, grid and port upgrades in place – could install as much as 96 GW of generation capacity by 2050, according to a study released by the World Bank Group. [1] Major objectives for Brazil are to not only supply power to population-dense areas but to create a parallel. . Porto Alegre, Brazil, 16 July 2024 – The World Bank Group today released a study on “Scenarios for Offshore Wind Development in Brazil” conducted by DNV, the global independent energy expert and assurance provider. As the country works toward its long-term energy transition, offshore wind—both fixed-bottom and floating—has emerged as a key pillar in diversifying its clean energy. .
