The work aims to verify the economic feasibility of renewable hybrid systems for hydrogen production and storage in the Brazilian electric power sector. The methodology
For instance, while a wind turbine''s cost can reach about $1 million per MW in Europe or the United States, in countries like Brazil, turbines can cost as low as $500,000 per MW.
The work consists of two main analyses: (i) analysis of the capability in supplying the Brazillian Northeast region power demand with a hybrid wind + solar + storage power plant;
Brazil''s planned 2025 Capacity Reserve Auction (LRCAP) – intended to contract energy storage to meet electricity demand during peak hours by evening out the supply of intermittently-generated renewable energy –
The price of energy on the free market, for a contract lasting a few years, is around R$135/MWh for conventional energy. The incentivized energy results in the same price considering the
3. Literature review on grid-scale energy storage in India The literature on grid-scale energy storage in India examines its role as part of India''s energy mix in the power
Additional notes: Capacity per capita and public investments SDGs only apply to developing areas. Energy self-sufficiency has been defined as total primary energy production divided by

Battery storage is transforming the global electric grid and is an increasingly important element of the world''s transition to sustainable energy. To match global demand for
Reliance on other sources for power generation is also growing, notably natural gas, wind (on-shore and off-shore) and bioenergy. Brazil is a global leader in second generation biofuels and flex-fuel cars provide a large domestic market.
Abstract Installation of hybrid systems with storage is a way to maximize the amount of energy generated through exploring the complementarity of different sources.
Record-low solar prices at Brazil''s latest auction have cast fresh spotlight on the industry''s global journey to cost-competitiveness, with experts arguing it further weakens the case of
In 2025, you''re looking at an average cost of about $152 per kilowatt-hour (kWh) for lithium-ion battery packs, which represents a 7% increase since 2021. Energy storage systems (ESS) for four-hour durations exceed $300/kWh, marking the

Battery storage is transforming the global electric grid and is an increasingly important element of the world''s transition to sustainable energy. To match global demand for massive battery storage projects like Hornsdale,
Renewable Energy Generation and Storage Models Renewable energy generation and storage models enable researchers to study the impact of integrating large-scale renewable energy resources into the electric power
Brazil is one of the leading renewable energy producers worldwide. In 2024, the Latin American country ranked third in terms of installed renewable capacity, only after China
Declining Battery Costs: Falling prices of lithium-ion batteries are making energy storage systems more affordable for residential and utility-scale projects in Brazil.
Renewable Energy Generation and Storage Models Renewable energy generation and storage models enable researchers to study the impact of integrating large
Renewable hybrid systems with hydrogen are current economic unviable in Brazil. Green hydrogen produced from curtailment events are current economic not feasible. To produce hydrogen economically viable, the plants should operate above 3000 h. The CAPEX should cost less than USD 650/kWe to store hydrogen economically viable.
The model concludes that the solar and wind hybrid system for hydrogen production and storage is not yet viable in Brazil. In addition, the CAPEX of electrolysers and storage tanks and their operating losses are key points for the deployment of these systems.
The CAPEX should cost less than USD 650/kWe to store hydrogen economically viable. It is more profitable trading hydrogen than transforming it back into power. The work aims to verify the economic feasibility of renewable hybrid systems for hydrogen production and storage in the Brazilian electric power sector.
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.
Several studies have demonstrated the feasibility of hybrid systems with combined solar PV, wind power, fuel cell, electrolyser, and hydrogen storage systems [, , , , , ].
Flexible generation and correlated solutions, including battery energy storage systems (BESS), are therefore likely to be at a premium in the future.
