  • Abstract
  • Renewable growth and sustainable energy industry development are a reality for the future of an environmentally harmonious society. The International Energy Agency (EIA) estimates that 80% of the electricity demand in the US will be supplied by renewable energies [1]. Developed countries lead this transition through policies to encourage sustainability. Vanguard nations in the energy transition lead the process due to institutions and active civil society that pressure governments in the pursuit of decarbonization of the matrix. Even renewable energy sources being the cheapest sources of energy generation in much of the globe [1] the structuring of markets and pro-decarbonization tools can accelerate the energy transition process, bringing a greener matrix faster. Centrally organized policies can be capital in rapid change, establishing a more sustainable society during the shift to a clean world. This work aims to show methods for accelerating the decarbonization of the Brazilian energy matrix, conceptualizing some of the main incentive methods and major characteristics. Such as efficiency, simplicity and coverage. These methods will be described and analyzed with international examples of successful applications and possible challenges adapting to Brazilian reality. Subsequently, some sustainable policy initiatives already implemented in the country will be discussed and they will interact with those new policies, covering the challenges for the next steps for a pioneering and harmonious transition respecting the current policies.
