Opportunities for Stakeholders: Investment Opportunities: The projected growth in the energy storage market presents lucrative investment opportunities for both domestic and international investors looking to capitalize on the evolving energy landscape in Brazil.
According to CELA's findings, the market for energy storage systems in Brazil is poised for a remarkable expansion, with an estimated annual growth rate of 12.8% until 2040. The study anticipates a substantial increase in installed capacity, reaching up to 7.2 GW during this period.
In Brazil, the cost of turn-key battery systems is notably high due to significant tax burdens. However, future projections indicate a potential reduction in battery costs, which could enhance economic feasibility for various applications. The booklet explores the viability of battery storage systems across different scenarios. For instance:
Investment, incentives and taxation scenarios According to Brazilian law, there are no legal restrictions on direct foreign investment in the battery storage businesses or in the power sector (except in very specific segments or sectors of the economy).
Conclusion Although energy storage solutions have yet to be widely deployed in Brazil, generation flexibility remains a scarce commodity. Therefore, storage projects, including pumped hydro, could be the missing piece needed to enhance the country’s energy system.
