The Brazilian Ministry of Mines and Energy has launched a public consultation for a potential battery auction. This would be an important step forward in advancing storage
A study by Brazilian consultancy Greener has indicated that the country installed 269 MWh of energy storage capacity in 2024, growth of 29% from 2023. Demand for battery energy storage system (BESS) components grew 89% in Brazil from 2023 to 2024 and most of the resulting systems are likely to be installed in 2025.
With well-designed policies and regulations, Brazil has significant potential to follow in the footsteps of jurisdictions like California and Chile for large-scale battery storage, Germany for distributed and large-scale storage, and Australia for both pumped hydro and large-scale battery systems.
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.
Flexible generation and correlated solutions, including battery energy storage systems (BESS), are therefore likely to be at a premium in the future.
